A senior Pit Bull who once rummaged through the trash can now enjoys the joy of tasting meatballs, all thanks to the kindness of a compassionate stranger.
Amora was on holiday in Bali when she came across a small Pit Bull eating out of a rubbish bin on the side of the road. He was in bad shape, had malignant tumours and was extremely emaciated. He had clearly been eating plastic, as she could see. She contacted Karin, the founder of Bali Bully Rescue, to see if she could help. Karin couldn’t say no, even though the rescue organisation’s intake was closed.
“I just don’t have the strength to ignore a dog in desperate need no matter what,” she writes on Bali Bully Rescue’s Facebook page. So my mantra for today is “rescue him first, worry about him later.”
Karin realized that the Pit Bull, whom they named Louie, had missed out on a lot of love over his eight years. She was determined to find him a loving foster home, and she succeeded. Louie just wanted to be a part of it all. Amora visited him and accompanied him to the beach, where he had a blast before returning to Germany.
Louie is described as a “very sweet and calm boy” who gets along well with Luna and Shelly. “We call them our fantastic three,” Karin writes. “They get along perfectly and now share our largest kennel.”
On the other hand, Karin would love for Louie to find a permanent home to enjoy his golden years.
Bali Bully Rescue is in desperate need of help right now. They are in desperate need of dry food for their 40 rescued pitbulls. If you would like to help Louie and Bali Bully Rescue, please visit their Facebook or Instagram pages.
