Thankfully, a puppy who had been brutally crated in a trash bag and left to die next to a riverbank was saved in time.

Every now and then there’s an animal ʀᴇsᴄᴜᴇ story that takes my ʙʀᴇᴀᴛʜ ᴀᴡᴀʏ. Oliviero’s is one such story.

Two women were strolling across the rivers of Messina in Southern Italy, when the ᴍᴜꜰꜰʟᴇᴅ ᴡʜɪᴍᴘᴇʀs of an animal caught their attention. They began to investigate the location of the noise and they discovered something in a garbage bag lying along the banks of the River Terme Vigliatore. What they found sʜᴏᴄᴋᴇᴅ and appalled them.

When the woman tore open the plastic bag, she found a dog in ᴘᴏᴏʀ condition. The scene was more ʜᴏʀʀɪꜰʏɪɴɢ when not far away, there was a ᴅᴇᴀᴅ calf lying Rᴏᴛᴛɪɴɢ nearby. The dog was ᴛʜʀᴏᴡɴ ᴀᴡᴀʏ ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴛʀᴀsʜ, ᴛɪᴇᴅ ᴜᴘ by electrical wires while vermin and ꜰʟʏ ʟᴀʀᴠᴀᴇ settled on the dog’s ʀᴀᴡ ᴍᴇᴀᴛ. He was so ᴇxʜᴀᴜsᴛᴇᴅ that he couldn’t stand up on his own.

The first thing the woman did was give the dog water to give him a boost. Then, they called the animal ʀᴇsᴄᴜᴇ staff to get help. Linda Li, an animal ʀᴇsᴄᴜᴇ volunteer, came and took the dog to the ᴠᴇᴛ. He seemed to know he was sᴀᴠᴇᴅ and it wagged its tail repeatedly.

They named the dog Oliviero. After ᴇxᴀᴍɪɴᴀᴛɪᴏɴ, they determined that he was ᴘᴀʀᴀʟʏᴢᴇᴅ in his hind legs due to an ᴜɴᴋɴᴏᴡɴ ɪɴᴊᴜʀʏ. Oliviero is cleaned of ticks and cleaned. He gets better every day thanks to the dedicated care of the ʀᴇsᴄᴜᴇ volunteers. Finally, Oliviero is adopted by a kind woman who will give him the love and family he deserves. Thank you to the ʟɪꜰᴇɢᴜᴀʀᴅs who helped change his life.

15 Pics That Prove Genes Can Be Very Powerful

We all have about 22,000 genes and sometimes we share enough genes with our family to be an almost identical copy of them. Although there may be 50 years between the 2 photos, their faces look the same thanks to the magic of these genes. There are some people who are carbon copies of their relatives, confirmed by their photos that simply blow us away.

Bright Side would like to share with you just how cool our genes can be with some exceptional photos we found.

1. “My mom and sister, both at age 6”

2. “My mom (left) age 4 in 1971. Me (right) age 4 in 2001. I see why people say we look alike.”

3. Grandmother 1941 and granddaughter 1999, same genes

4. “Me, 1992. Mom, 1954.”

5. “Here’s me and my fraternal twin.”
