‘They beat him with a shovel’ Senior Dog Left Injured and Traumatized

In a tough neighborhood, a place where life isn’t easy, there’s a story about an old dog named Chucky that really makes you think about how cruel people can be. Chucky, who’s about fourteen years old, has been through a lot. He’s a friendly dog who has spent most of life in a harsh environment. Let me tell you his story.

A Rough Start

Chucky’s journey started with a rough patch when a car ran over his foot. His owner, worried and sad, called a group known as Sidewalk for help which is a mass sterilization unit & dog rescue. They rushed Chucky to the vet, and thanks to people who donated money, he got the treatment he needed to walk again.

As the years went by, Sidewalk didn’t forget about Chucky. They kept coming back to check on him, making sure he was okay and helping him with new problems like arthritis. They even took care of his dog friends in the neighborhood, giving them shots and making sure they were healthy.

Beaten By A Shovel

But things got bad again when some cruel people hurt Chucky with a shovel “They beat him with a shovel”. His owner was heartbroken and scared for him. She said, “I just want him to be safe and not sore like he is now.” She knew it wasn’t safe for him anymore. Through her tears, she asked Sidewalk to find a safer place for Chucky to live. 

Sidewalk jumped into action. They talked about moving Chucky to a retirement home, somewhere he could be safe and not have to worry about being hurt again. They planned to take him to Cape Town for special vet care first, because of his arthritis. This story really shows why we need groups like Sidewalk. There are so many animals out there who live in dangerous places and need help. Now, Chucky is getting ready to move to his new home where he will be safe and loved.
