Beached by its owner and gone for good.
That pretty much sums up the story of this puppy. In a world full of uncertainties, he had just had his own experience when his owner heartlessly flushed him down an outhouse.
Frightened and completely cut off from basic human conditions, he was forced to face the harsh reality. But, at just eight weeks old, it was almost impossible to fight his battles alone.
Luckily, he wasn’t alone!
Just when he seemed to have hit rock bottom, another man appeared.
Thrown to fend for itself
A woman noticed the puppy lying on the toilet floor and immediately jumped into action. She contacted Fort Wayne Animal Care and ControlIndiana, informing them of the terrible state the puppy was in.
He was extremely malnourished. Its spine was visible and the puppy had urine-stained paws.
“This sweet boy was malnourished, with his ribcage and spine visible, his paws stained with urine and his nails overgrown, and he was very scared. Our medical team looked at his overall health and the main concern was getting him to a healthy weight. the rescue wrote in a Facebook post.
Besides providing medical care, the main concern was giving this sweet boy as much love as possible. With such great trauma behind him, he was obviously scared. But in just a few minutes, he showed his true colors!
In no time, the puppy reconciled with his rescuers, as if he had always been their family.
Upon arrival at the facility, he transformed into the most adorable lapdog. He just loved being loved for the first time! And he really loved being able to return the favor!
During his convalescence process, the medical team designed a special meal plan for him. The main goal was to get the puppy back on track without disrupting his digestive system.
The True Testimony of How Animals Can Forgive
After his rescue, the puppy was placed in a foster family – and it turned out to be the best idea ever!
This little hero has been nothing but the sweetest bug since the moment he met his rescuers, and now he finally has the chance to have a whole new life.
“This precious boy has been a restless little angel despite the failure of the person who was supposed to care for him. Once his enthusiasm for you has died down, he loves to snuggle up on your warm lap. What a testament to how forgiving animals can be. »wrote his caregivers on Facebook.
The Indiana rescue reported on her incredible first day with her foster family. However, the only thing he was missing was a nameso they asked their Facebook followers to help them with suggestions.
A day later, they announced the winning name!
“Pup found abandoned in porta-potty now has a name… Louie!” ✨ The name translates to “famous warrior” the rescue wrote in an update.
For now, Louie will learn socialization and manners with his new siblings. Placed in a comfortable home with lots of new faces and lots of love, he is just happy to embark on this exciting new adventure.
When the time comes, I have absolutely no doubt that Louie will end up having a beautiful home just for him. At the end of the day, a forever family that won’t let him down this time, that’s all he asks forand he deserves it!
