Can you imagine? A lively and energetic golden retriever lived on the top floor for 16 years and never came downstairs. None of the neighbors had ever seen it. The first time the neighbors saw it was because its owner wanted to euthanize it...
An animal shelter specializing in rescuing large dogs like Golden Retrievers received a call for help and rescued the dog. Upon arrival at the vet, it was discovered that the dog was in very poor condition, suffering from pyometra, a tumor, heartworm, anemia, and dehydration. Volunteers decided to treat the pyometra first, and then proceed with further treatment once the dog regained its strength.
The neighbor who discovered the Golden Retriever's tragic condition was a netizen who had been following dog paw prints for a long time. The owner asked the neighbor if they could recommend a hospital to euthanize the dog. The neighbor went upstairs to check on the dog's condition and found a Golden Retriever lying on the rooftop balcony.
The 16-year-old dog had been sick for a long time. A few days ago, it stopped eating and drinking and couldn't stand up. A veterinarian diagnosed it with pyometra, but the owner refused medical treatment and wanted to euthanize it.
Neighbors didn't see any other dogs at the scene. Instead, the owner's parents let slip that the golden retriever had given birth to several litters and sold many of them. The neighbors, unwilling to see the dog euthanized, sought help from the rescue organization Dog Paws.
So the volunteers drove to pick up the dog. The dog was covered in blood and smelled terrible. They put it in a cardboard box and carried it downstairs. The owner was only willing to pay a maximum of 3,000 yuan for medical expenses, and said he wouldn't care whether it lived or died after that. After leaving its original home, the dog was given a new name, "Baozhu." The vet examination results were not optimistic; in addition to pyometra, it also had a tumor, heartworm, anemia, and dehydration. Worried that the weak Baozhu wouldn't survive, they only treated the pyometra that night and focused on providing it with nutrition for the next few days. Baozhu is still lying down; further medical treatment can only be carried out after it recovers its strength and can stand up.
The dog is so pitiful. It's obvious that the owner only used it to have puppies and then sell them. When it got old and could no longer breed, the owner planned to euthanize it. The owner didn't treat its illnesses, and the dog hadn't even left the building for 16 years. It spent its life in despair like that... I believe that evil will be punished, and the owner of such a dog will definitely not have a good end!
