On May 31, a kind-hearted person found a small dog curled up in a corner under a dark and damp bridge.
Its frail body trembled in the breeze, its eyes helpless and weary, seemingly bearing the weight of the world's endless vicissitudes.
She gently approached the dog, trying to help it. The dog opened its mouth as if to express something, but didn't make a sound. Upon closer inspection, she noticed a black device strapped around the dog's neck, and her heart was immediately filled with worry.
Lacking experience in rescue efforts, she immediately contacted Liu Li, who was experienced in such matters.
Liu Li told her to take the puppy to the nearest veterinary hospital first, and then rushed over herself. When Liu Li first saw the puppy, its eyes were empty and confused, filled with deep fear and bewilderment.
Its body trembled incessantly, each breath heavy and labored, as if carrying a thousand-pound burden. Liu Li quickly and carefully removed the black device from the puppy's neck—a terrifying electric motor. This cruel device would immediately activate an electric shock the moment the puppy cried out, and the louder the cry, the stronger the shock.
Everyone present was furious upon seeing the device, and they couldn't help but exclaim: What kind of perverted owner did this dog have? Isn't this animal abuse?
Over the years, the puppy has learned to be silent, and it lives in a state of high tension year-round.
Every moment is like walking on thin ice, because it never knows when the next electric shock will come.
The dog had no idea what it had done wrong and could only silently endure the excruciating pain.
After examination by the vet, it was found that the dog was over ten years old, had severe kidney failure, and had oral ulcers all over its mouth.
It had reached a point where it was beyond treatment, so after being discharged from the hospital, Liu Li took it to the base to be cared for.
After being rescued, it would often sit alone in a corner, lost in thought, and frequently burst into tears, perhaps reflecting on how it had survived the past ten years. Liu Li would carefully prepare meals for it every day and hold it in her arms while feeding it. However, the dog could no longer absorb nutrients and would vomit everything it ate, leaving her with no choice but to give it intravenous nutrition to keep it alive.
If you can, please help this poor little fur baby. She hopes that Electric Dog can happily bark and play with the other dogs at the shelter, freely expressing its natural instincts. But it is so careful that it dares not utter a single sound.
The dog that was electrocuted only lived for a few days before passing away without ever barking again.
Its silence is a transcendence of suffering and a yearning for tranquility. May this dog be happy forever.
Liu Li, 54, has been rescuing stray animals since 2006 and founded a non-governmental public welfare rescue organization, the Harbin Liu Li Small Animal Rescue Station, to give them a home. She has gone bankrupt in the process.
From 2006 to 2024, over eighteen years, she sold her house and wedding jewelry, moving from place to place, all to give stray animals a stable home. Liu Li said that in these years of full-time rescue work, she has endured hardships she had never experienced in the first half of her life.
During her most difficult time, she was homeless, spending over half a month sleeping in the wild with more than 100 stray dogs. "At that time, I really thought about jumping off a building to commit suicide, because I didn't know where our food would come from tomorrow..."
She cried many times, telling herself: "My abilities are limited, it's better to let them fend for themselves." But in the end, she persevered. As the rescue continued, the number of animals grew daily, and the shelter now has more than 4,000 animals! Liu Li could only keep expanding the kennels. The rescue station was like a machine that couldn't produce its own blood; all Liu Li could do was keep giving it blood.
If you can, please help the poor furry child.
The pet consumes 3,000 kilograms of food every day, not to mention other expenses such as rent, utilities, vaccines, workers' wages, and medical costs.
The furry friends can only survive on corn chips, but even with the cheapest corn chips, they still don't know where their next meal will come from.
Faced with such immense pressure, Liu Li developed depression and was hospitalized several times.
Each time she was discharged from the hospital, the doctor told her to rest well, otherwise her health would really collapse. Because the weather in Harbin has been getting colder recently, many pets have gotten sick.
In order to save the patients' lives, the base had to use some of the funds originally allocated for food purchases to buy medicine. Liu Li's depression relapsed due to anxiety, and the base's workers quickly took her to the hospital.
But thinking of all the hungry animals at the shelter, Liu Li couldn't stay in the hospital for even a moment longer. Her biggest worry right now is the situation at the shelter, which is constantly short of food.
Especially for sick pets, without enough food, they cannot get the nutrition to recover. Whenever the hungry pets look at Liu Li, her heart aches.
We have no choice but to appeal to everyone for help, hoping to save our furry friends' hard-won home. We earnestly request everyone to lend a helping hand to these unfortunate animals and give them something to eat.
Your small act of kindness may save a life. Thank you to every kind-hearted person!
