Sadly, we live in a world where encountering stray dogs on the streets has become an everyday reality. These scenes can sometimes be so overwhelming that they are truly heartbreaking for genuine dog lovers.
To make matters worse, there are many heartless individuals who choose to ignore these poor creatures, refusing to even look at them, let alone offer help or relief from their suffering.
Fortunately, no matter how rare they may be, there are always kind souls who step up when they are most needed—like a light at the end of a long, dark tunnel.
This was the case when a compassionate rescuer came across two poor puppies with severely swollen bellies, clearly enduring immense pain.
This kind-hearted individual did not turn away but instead chose to help them, ultimately saving their precious lives.
Tough Road To Recovery
As soon as the big-hearted rescuer got the call about two puppies in need, she rushed to that place to help them. When she got there, she was heartbroken by the condition they were in.
These two helpless creatures had such severely swollen bodies that they were barely able to walk and they were also very weak. However, what broke this woman’s heart the most was the clear sadness in their eyes.
That sight motivated her to act quickly so she rushed them to the vet immediately. When they got to the veterinary clinic and were examined, the vet acknowledged that they both had red blood cells lower than normal, i.e., they suffered from severe anemia.
Aside from that, their stomachs were full of fluid so the vet immediately started draining it. It wasn’t an easy process, and it required days, so they had to be patient.
In the meantime, the doctor gave them antibiotics and a blood tonic, which they had to consume for 30 days. He also gave them a flea removal drug to get rid of numerous fleas from their bodies.
These great people weren’t willing to give up on them so easily, and the puppies themselves helped them with that as they were true fighters who truly wanted to continue living their lives.
At the same time, they were very supportive of each other as well, which helped them a lot on their difficult road to recovery.
Better Days Ahead
Although their bellies were still very swollen, these two puppies were getting better every day in every other aspect. Their savior, who was regularly visiting them in the hospital, was over the moon because of this turn of events.
She also decided to give them names — Nong King and Nong Thon. Aside from the fact that their physical health was improving, Nong and Nong were also healing emotionally, consequently bringing smiles back to their faces.
In the meantime, the doctors were also doing a fantastic job removing fluid from their bodies; thus, enabling them to live normal lives again.
Their rescuer was now convinced that it was only a matter of time before the happiest moment came, and that happened even before she expected. One morning, they woke up without swollen bellies, with big smiles, and full of will to live their new, happy lives.
The puppies got so close to this woman’s heart that she could no longer imagine life without them. She decided that from then on, her home would also be theirs.
From stray puppies whose sad looks broke even the most optimistic hearts, these two became full-fledged members of a beloved family and never took the smile off their faces.
All this was thanks to a good soul who did not want to turn her head away from them like so many others did.
