The unfortunate reality is that underweight and emaciated dogs frequently end themselves in animal shelters. Witnessing animals suffer till they are nearly unable to stand upsets me.
Some show fondness and trust for humans despite their mistreatment, while others cower in dread at the sight of a rescuer. It is not worth considering occasionally what the latter have gone through.
I find it impossible to think that I would ever want to harm an animal. Moreover, I find it incomprehensible that someone could find any kind of enjoyment in doing this.
Having said that, I believe dogs possess a sixth sense that allows them to distinguish between good and bad people.
People who work with animals will know how important it is to provide a neglected animal the opportunity to initiate contact. It’s normal to want to play and stroke a dog to reassure it that you are not dangerous, but this isn’t always the best course of action.
Some people simply cannot comprehend the possibility that a dog who has endured abuse could be taken aback by an unfamiliar person.
Hours from now, Edie, a mixed-breed abandoned dog, would be put to sleep. It had been a very long time since anyone had shown her any concern, and she was afraid of people. She was seriously undernourished, and her fur was a mess.
To give Edie another chance, you had to be a true animal lover.
It’s challenging to see the first segment of the video. Edie is so terrified that she is at a loss for what to do. She feels that this man is a menace, so she shakes her entire body and barks to get rid of him.
Ultimately, though, the man in the video manages to grab Edie and prevent her from fleeing. Now he can get close to her.
After then, the establishment of a trust agreement happens quickly. Edie starts to realize that he is there to support her rather than to harm her. The instant she knows she won’t be put down anymore is practically visible.
See Edie’s response in the video below when she realizes she’s saved:
Let’s take a moment to show our appreciation to people who commit their life to serving the needs of animals.
For our helpless four-legged friends, the world would be a much worse place without you all.
