Two Young Heroes Save an Injured Mama Dog Stuck in a River

Occurred on August 22, 2020 / Philippines

Info from Licensor: I was out on a walk around our subdivision. As I passed by a creek, I noticed a dog in the middle of the creek, look tired and quivering.
As an animal lover ( I have 4 dogs and 4 cats) it touched my heart so I immediately asked for help, shouting "there’s a dog in the creek" (several times), a woman approached us but turned back, I was wondering why but was glad that she came back with a boy that happens to be her son who helped rescue the dog.

According to the woman, the dog with 6 (six) puppies, the dog's owner is an old woman living beside there house but due to her condition, she is now with her daughter away. The woman and her son were fostering that dog temporarily.
When the dog was rescued, we saw in her eyes a mixture of happiness and fear, the dog cannot walk properly and was dragging its two hind legs. We immediately brought the dog to the nearest veterinary clinic. The doctor said someone probably hit the dog with something hard and threw it in the creek. The dog is now under observation for 3 to 4 weeks with medications. I am very glad that there are many generous donors helping the dog medical expenses.
