A Chihuahua dog who reacted in fear when humans approached her finally got the help she needed. Her state of health was very delicate, in addition, she had suffered so much that she did not trust people and that made it difficult for rescuers to offer her help and affection.

They knew that they had to work so that she was able to trust people again, recovering from the wounds of the past that only allowed her to know the worst side of humanity.

All dogs that survive on the street constantly face the indifference and insensitivity of many people who unfortunately have no empathy for their pain. Meanwhile, these poor little animals struggle to meet their basic needs among many risks that threaten their health and well-being.

Most stray dogs live in a state of constant anxiety and stress, on the streets, totally helpless, every day is a challenge.

This is how this Chihuahua dog survived, she had so many physical wounds and in her heart that every time a person approached her she felt completely threatened .

Her name is Bruna and she was wandering the streets of Tampico, in Mexico, it was enough to see her to identify that her health was severely affected .

Some residents of the area where the dog frequented decided to help her to save her life , but they did not know how to approach because she reacted very frightened. It was not easy to win her trust.

So they went to the Kokoroñi shelter to ask for help, they were warned that the dog was in very bad shape and that she needed immediate medical attention.

The members of the animal organization went to the place where Bruna was to help her, it would not be an easy rescue.

When they approached the dog, they tried to distract her to get her into their vehicle and take her to a veterinary clinic.

After submitting her to the pertinent medical check-ups, the veterinarians determined that Bruna had a high degree of malnutrition. They also diagnosed a serious condition on her skin that made them think that some hot substance had been spilled on her back, she had signs of burns and had lost her fur.

The dog had also lost a large part of her teeth , her condition had deteriorated greatly, it was evident that if she did not receive help she would have a fatal outcome.

The veterinarians who treated Bruna were very moved, her heart broke to see what she had suffered. They started giving her medical treatment to help her get better despite how difficult it was to get close to her.

Even though Bruna was getting help, she still didn’t trust people . Her traumas prevented her from relating normally with those around her.

Bruna cried inconsolably when someone approached her, she felt a lot of fear and sadness.

“She did not trust people, she was terrified, she cried, she tried to defend us, she lost her spirits every day, we talked to her and tried to caress her , little by little we earned her trust,” the volunteers from the Kokoroñi shelter reported.

But, although it was extremely difficult, they did not give up , their excessive love for animals and their vocation for service motivated them to unite all their efforts for the recovery of Bruna.

Little by little they found ways to caress her and heal her, she was trusting her rescuers and expressing her love and gratitude.

The dog could not trust anyone because they had only made her suffer

Bruna still expresses her fear of people she doesn’t know, so the rescuers constantly talk to her in a loving way to explain that not everyone wants to hurt her.

All the rescuers want is for Bruna to completely heal the wounds that prevent her from being fully happy so that she can be adopted by a family that gives her all the love she deserves.

They trust that the Chihuahua dog will soon be able to go home to those who look after her well-being and make her a member of the family. While she arrives at that moment, they will remain by her side helping her.

It is gratifying to know that there are people willing to help animals that, like this dog, suffer a lot. We hope that Bruna has the happiness that she has lacked for the rest of her life and that together , we fight against the unfair treatment that these innocent beings receive.
