Discovered in a state of extreme starvation, with a skeleton threatening to puncture his skin, this poor dog’s will to survive is the inspiration and motivation of millions of other animals to follow_Beloved Dogs

   

On November 1, a couple made an old house their own, only to discover a dog locked inside, seemingly abandoned for quite some time. Marisa from Coraço100dono immediately took the emaciated dog to the vet, as he was malnourished and had bones protruding through his skin.

The realtor confirmed that the previous owner did not have a dog, leading them to believe that Valentine was intentionally left behind when the gate was locked, trapping him inside. No one had noticed him until the couple entered the house.

For several weeks, Valentine had survived solely on rainwater and was infested with fleas and parasites. Yet, despite his condition, his eyes showed a strong will to survive.

Marisa brought him back to her shelter the following day, and Valentine’s story quickly gained popularity on social media.

Valentine’s appetite gradually returned, and he eagerly devoured his meals. Marisa also took him for long-awaited walks outside. Within three days of his rescue, he had already gained a kilogram, showing promising progress.

Now, he can walk properly and play with his fellow canine friends. While he still has a long road ahead, Valentine can finally rest in a warm bed, knowing that he is safe and loved.
