Unfortunately, the fate of many puppies on the streets is most uncertain. And our hearts shrink to imagine that not only loneliness, but the most deplorable conditions is what awaits them , without a single soul stopping to help them.
It was the heartbreaking scene that Pía, a merciful soul living in Argentina, found when on Christmas Eve, she saw this little dog under a bridge on the brink of death.
“I cried because I couldn’t believe that no one had helped him before,” Pía said after finding him.
She saw him loitering near a friend’s house in Buenos Aires, with a picture of scabies so chronic that it caused immediate revulsion . As a consequence, no one ever approached her… Except, Pia!
The poor man was obviously sick and covered in sores, simply waiting for the end of his days. But Pía, passionate about animals, knew that she had to act. She immediately took him to the vet, but the prognosis was clear.
“I knew I wouldn’t make it through the night,” Pia said.
But she wasn’t willing to give up, and neither was he. She physically stayed by her side for the next 48 hours , never imagining the miracle she would soon witness.
«It was very hard for both of us, I left everything to make it okay. In those 3 days he lost a kilo, he did not eat anything. I only gave him water every 3 hours to hydrate him so he wouldn’t die,” says the admirable woman.
«I brought him to my house and I was already sure that he was going to die on TWO occasions, but no… He fighting, that’s why his name: HERCULES».
«He fought with me, I also got up and cried and was by his side. So we did it together actually. And one day suddenly he stopped suddenly and began to walk, he got tired quickly, but the results were seen. And yes, the truth is I cried, I cried like a fool , “says Pía.
And in 10 days, he grew a beautiful and shiny coat, and soon they both witnessed a true miracle:
From there, his rescuer recounts that everything was good for Hercules. His transformation brought about by his incredible fighting spirit, but above all by Pia’s infinite love, is something you don’t see every day.
«He is a very cuddly dog, he loves to be held. When I had to put him up for adoption, I just couldn’t. I kept it.”
And how was he going to get rid of this brave warrior?
«He showed me that he wanted to live. I would get tired, but he kept eating, he kept looking at me with those little eyes».
“As they changed, they had another shine, they looked at me and it was a grateful look… Hercules is a MIRACLE!”, concludes this heroine.
Currently, Hercules shares the most beautiful adventures with his adoptive mother from whom he is never separated. You can see more of his day-to-day life on his Instagram account @Herculesysubanda.
