A dog has been dubbed as one of the saddest cases a rescue centre has ever seen after being saved from ‘death’s door’.
Tony was was brought to Many Tears earlier this year and the list of his conditions were unending.
He was used as a stud for around 15 years and had been kept in a cage, never seeing daylight meaning he is now blind.
Tony was not even allowed out to go to the toilet, and was infested and red raw from lying in his own urine and faeces inside the cage.
He only has four teeth remaining from unhygienic living conditions and the state of his front legs suggest they were once broken and left to mend themselves.
When brought in to Many Tears Rescue in Carmarthenshire, who took him to safety, they described him as “one of the saddest cases they had seen”.
Now, he is on constant medication for his eyes and joints while also battling pneumonia since arriving.
However, four months ago, Tony was adopted from the centre and his new owner Becky received the amazing news that he had a clear X-Ray, showing that he is finally on the mend after finding a loving home.
