Exhausted, Wounded Dog Sits On The Side Of The Highway Until Rescuers Save His Life

Animal rescuers see all kinds of crazy things every day.

The animals they help are often neglected, abused, and even injured in ways that make them difficult to deal with. Many dogs who have lived their lives on the street don’t even want human help. When Animal Aid Unlimited in India came across a dog on the side of a busy highway, however, they knew they had to do something.

The dog was too exhausted to continue walking, and he was in so much danger with cars whizzing past.

Fortunately, he came right to the aid worker, who started to give him food. They noticed that his ear was severely infected.
