In the squares, in the garbage cans of the streets, left alone on the side of the tracks, hundreds of animals are found every day. It seems that we still have a long way to go to learn and become aware as a species that these voiceless beings are unable to fend for themselves and, therefore, require our care, writes fancy4work
A new case of animal rejection was raised this time on a desolate highway in the United States, where a woman named Lenny must have been an eyewitness to human indifference , which had left two terrified puppies in a very bad state of health. Health.
Having had to remain for an indefinite time on the side of the road, without water or food, the puppies suffered from obvious malnutrition . But, it was thanks to the rescuer’s father, who alerted he
“Daughter, two puppies abandoned on the road,” was the message she read.
Arriving at the site marked by her father, the woman evidenced that, indeed, the puppies were in serious danger of dying of starvation, or could even be run over. So she stayed about half an hour to try to gain his trust from her. After suffering so much indignity, it was natural for the little ones to hesitate to approach.
Finally, Lenny was able to take them in his arms. He realized that, in addition to their low weight, the two furry brothers also had serious skin infections , which had left them practically hairless in various areas of their bodies, which made them look even worse.
“Oh my God! What happened to these poor creatures? Lenny told himself, at that moment.
Without wasting any more time, the woman transferred them to her vehicle, caressed, fed and cared for them with so much love, which was more than returned by the puppies, who soon felt so relaxed that they fell asleep for a while curled up.
When he woke up, Lenny couldn’t bear to cry thinking about everything they had had to go through up to that moment. However, on the other hand, she was relieved to know that both animals would never have to experience something similar again.
In a very short time, and thanks to Lenny’s care and love, Bugz and Bear’s fur began to grow back , in a fairly rapid transformation, despite their serious injuries.
Finally, the now happy Bugz and Bear found a forever home , led by the hand of their new human mother to a new and well-deserved life. The truth is that they were black from a very young age.
Throwing an animal out on the street is one of the cruelest actions that human beings can commit because we know that they need us to feed themselves, stay clean and receive medical care.
However, there are some who continue to suffer from blindness in the face of this tragedy, they are indifferent. For this reason, there are still so many similar cases of dogs on the street to review. Fortunately, Bugz and Bear had a happy ending, but how many other furry ones are there who never have the chance of a decent life.

10 Common Dog Health Problems
Some health problems are specific to certain breeds, such as breathing complications for flat-faced dogs. But several other canine health issues can affect any dog. Here are 10 typical health conditions you need to watch out for in your four-legged best friend:
Top 10 Common Dog Health Problems
Skin Problems
One of the most obvious signs that your dog has a skin condition is itching. Other symptoms that may suggest that your dog has a skin problem include rashes, redness, dry skin, lumps, bumps, skin sores, dandruff, and hair loss.
Ear Diseases
Approximately 20 percent of dogs suffer from ear disease. It’s particularly common in breeds with floppy ears like cocker spaniels and basset hounds. It’s common to see wax buildup or discharge in their ear canal. But others may experience pain, itchiness, redness, swelling, and crusting in the ears.
Urinary Tract Infections
Simply known as UTI, this condition can make it uncomfortable for your beloved companion to pass urine. Signs of urinary tract infection include drinking water more than usual and passing urine more often than usual. Your dog may also only pass a small amount or lose bladder control. Additionally, you may see blood in their urine or notice a strong smell to it.
Vomiting
There are countless reasons why your pet may throw up. You don’t need to visit the vet each time your dog vomits. But it’s also not something you can just ignore. Don’t try to guess. If the vomiting persists or occurs with other symptoms like diarrhea or lethargy, you need to rush to the vet. It could be a sign of severe health problems, such as poisoning or gastrointestinal blockage.
Diarrhea
This symptom may occur on its own or be accompanied by vomiting. Its potential causes are similar to vomiting. One or two episodes of diarrhea may not be a pet emergency. But recurring diarrhea can result in dehydration.
Parasites
At some point in their lives, your pet may have to deal with discomfort due to internal or external parasites. Symptoms of parasites generally vary, depending on a few factors. These include the kind of parasite that has plagued your pet, where it lives, and how severe its infestation is.
Dental Issues
Like us, your dog can develop canine dental diseases due to high levels of plaque buildup. Several signs indicate that your pet may have dental disease. These include difficulty eating, bleeding of the gums or teeth, loose teeth, and bad breath.
Obesity
Nearly 30 percent of the general dog population is considered obese. Several factors contribute to a pet’s risk. These include age, genetic predisposition, lack of exercise, and overfeeding, among others.
Arthritis
This joint problem can restrict your dog’s mobility. Bring Fido to the vet if you see your dog slow down or limp before and after walks. Other signs include licking or chewing on tender areas and behavioral changes.
Poisoning
Symptoms of dog poisoning vary widely, depending on the kind of toxin a pet has been exposed to. The signs can range from vomiting to drooling, breathing difficulties, seizures, or worse, coma. Some of the most common poisonous substances are human foods like chocolates, grapes, raisins, onions, and caffeine. Other known culprits are human medications, household cleaning products, pesticides, and some plants.
