Juanita, a sweet and innocent dog, found herself abandoned on the streets, struggling to breathe and unable to get up due to a distended belly filled with fluid. Passers-by ignored her plight until Karla Garcia, a kind-hearted individual, came to her rescue and took her to the vet.
The vet immediately recognized the severity of Juanita’s condition and took swift action. Multiple suctioning procedures were performed to remove the fluid from her abdomen, which was putting pressure on her lungs and making it difficult for her to breathe. Despite the challenges she faced, Juanita showed resilience and began to slowly recover with each procedure.
As Juanita grew stronger, her true personality emerged. She was playful, affectionate, and had a wagging tail that never stopped. The vet and her staff were captivated by Juanita’s spirit and made sure she received the best care possible. They even found her a foster home where she could continue her recovery in a warm and loving environment.
With each passing day, Juanita’s progress was evident. Day 14 saw her back to her old self, full of energy and life. Her remarkable journey touched the hearts of everyone who heard her story. She proved that with love and care, no obstacle is insurmountable.
Day 21 marked a significant milestone in Juanita’s journey. Her foster family decided to adopt her and give her a forever home filled with love and security. Juanita’s transformation from a helpless stray to a cherished family member was a testament to the power of compassion and resilience.
Juanita’s story serves as a reminder that there are countless abandoned and neglected animals in need of our help. It only takes one person to make a difference, and Karla Garcia’s act of kindness saved Juanita’s life and brought her the love and care she deserved.
Juanita’s journey from abandonment to a loving home is a beacon of hope for all animals in need. Her story is a testament to the power of compassion, and a reminder that every life is valuable and deserving of love and care. Let Juanita’s story inspire us all to be a voice for the voiceless and make a positive impact in the lives of animals in need. Together, we can create a brighter future for them all.
Police smash car window to save dog from 115F heat
Police were forced to smash a car window to rescue a dog from scorching 115F (46C) temperatures in Sarasota, Florida.
Officers were called to a car park on University Parkway on Tuesday following reports of a dog locked inside a car.
A dog, appearing faint, was found inside with no trace of its owner. According to police, the temperature inside was 115F (46C).
Matthew Grochowski, an officer for the Sarasota Police Department, was filmed smashing the window of the car in body camera footage of the incident, shared to Facebook on Friday.
“It’s panting and and drooling all over the place”, the officer says in the footage.
“Oh my god he’s starting to go down, that’s not good,” another officer, from the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office Animal Services, adds.
With the backing of Sgt Louis Buck, the officer was filmed striking a back window of the car, and smashed it on the third try, with glass falling to the floor.
“It’s OK buddy,” the officer tells the dog, which appeared to be a form of pit bull. “Come on, good boy.”
The dog was taken from the back of the car, and into an awaiting kennel by Sarasota animal services.
Following the incident, the Sarasota Police Department issued a warning for dog owners not to lock animals inside cars.
“Please don’t leave pets in hot cars,” said the post, “[and] always remember to look before you lock for pets, children and elderly loved ones.”
The owner of the dog was issued with two citations by Animal Services, who returned the dog.
