Surviving the cold, harsh streets is difficult for any dog, let alone a small puppy who has found himself in a very difficult situation.
So when Suzette Hall, founder of Logan’s Legacy, a rescue organization based in Irvine, California, heard about a little puppy stuck in a dead-end canal, she knew she had to help immediately.
However, as it was a serious and difficult rescue mission, she had to call for reinforcements.
Rescue mission
After contacting his friend Nelson and informing him of the situation, the two Californian rescuers went to the scene, determined to save the puppy from the sticky situation he had gotten himself into.
When they arrived, Hall and Nelson were unsure how to approach emergency services. But since they didn’t know how long the puppy had been there without food or water, Nelson knew he didn’t have much time.
“Nelson was incredibly brave, he literally went down the canal. He literally didn’t know how to get through it, but he didn’t give up. Hall wrote in a Facebook post.
Unfortunately, when the puppy saw Nelson approaching him, he got so scared that he tried to run away.
But Nelson did not give up. After some time, he managed to catch him with a net and find a way out of the canal, get him and the puppy back to safety.
As soon as she had him in her arms, Hall comforted the puppy: letting him know that nothing bad would ever happen to him againbefore driving him to his friend Kristina, where he spent the night.
Road to Recovery
Unfortunately, the puppy, now named Sammy, was not in great condition.
Besides always being nervous, he had a foxtail stuck between his two toesmaking the area very painful and ultimately infected.
Fortunately, he was able to have surgery the next day.
With all the incredible donations and the incredible veterinary team, Sammy’s operation was a success.
“He is recovering and doing very well. He had a tooth extracted. He will suffer, take medication and antibiotics. She wrote.
New life
As Sammy recovered, one of the vet techs decided that his recovery would be much easier if he was in a foster home rather than in the clinic.
So she decided to welcome him.
And the rest is history!
Hall said Tech immediately fell in love with him and wanted nothing more than to make him part of her loving family. And who could say no to that?
Sammy is now living the life of his dreams surrounded by loving hoomans and an amazing furry brother that turns every day into an incredible adventure.
A huge thank you to all the men involved in this incredible rescue! You made a puppy happy beyond words.
THANKS!
