Distemper is a leading cause of death among unvaccinated stray dogs. This infectious disease, which affects the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and central nervous systems of dogs, is often caused by a virus.
In this video, we see the staff of Animal Help Umіtеd try to rescue a young puppy at home who is suffering from distemper.
In fact, the dog had been infected for weeks, but did not receive treatment because the baby was not home. She was finally found collapsed on the side of the road, wagging her tail in anticipation of seeking rescue.
The rescue team realized the dog was dying, but had the option of giving him a chance to recover. He received intensive care for 2 weeks, which included antibiotics and fluids.
Despite her unbearable discomfort, the dog was grateful that the humans took care of her for the first time in her life.
He was gradually improving every day! It was a magical moment for the care team when the puppy regained the strength to stand on all fours and walk smoothly!
She was so overjoyed with her victory that she ran to her rescuers and hugged them tightly. Her bright smiles and boundless tail wagging made our day!
To see how the rescue team fought against all odds to save this young pup’s life, watch the video below.
