In a recent Facebook post, a heartrending story unfolded about Charlie, a pitbull puppy found abandoned next to a dumpster, in a dire state. Nikki rubino, a seasoned veterinary technician, discovered Charlie. He was severely injured, with head wounds and covered in dirt, barely clinging to life.

Nikki’s expertise was immediately put to use as she carefully approached Charlie, who was tied to a pole and unresponsive. Despite his poor condition, it was miraculous that he could still lift his head. Nikki and a friend managed to transport Charlie to the Philadelphia Animal Hospital, where his condition has been critical but stable.

The hospital, recognizing the gravity of Charlie’s situation, shared an update on Facebook, emphasizing the unfortunate reality of such incidents. They noted Charlie’s friendly nature and mentioned that the medical team was doing everything possible for his recovery.

The Humane Law Enforcement Unit of the Pennsylvania society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (PsPCA) is investigating the case, trying to find those responsible for Charlie’s condition. Remarkably, Charlie had a microchip implanted by the PsPCA, suggesting he might have been used in dog fihgtts.

The community’s response to Charlie’s plight has been overwhelming. The Philadelphia Animal Hospital, grateful for the support, redirected further donations to the City of Elderly Love: save a senior Pet organization. This group, although not typically involved in such rescues, has taken responsibility for Charlie’s post-recovery care.

Since his rescue on October 26, 2017, Charlie has shown signs of improvement, although concerns about sepsis from his wounds remain. By October 29, he was seen happily moving around the hospital. The path to recovery is long, with surgeries needed to remove dood tissue and more, but Charlie is now receiving the care and love he desperately needs.

This story is a testament to the compassion and dedication of individuals looke nikki, the rescue team, and medical professionals who work tirelessly to save lives looke Charlie’s. It’s a reminder of the impact of kindness and the difference it can make in the face of adversity.
