Abandoned without food and water at the bottom of a canyon, Riley the dog was destined to die a slow and sad death. But then help came to him in the form of a former U.S. Marine, who saved this dog in every way possible.
It was in 2010 that Sergeant Zachary Anderegg accidentally came across an 8-month-old puppy during a hiking trip in Arizona. The dog was helpless and alone at the bottom of a 350-foot canyon and had been starving for many days. As a result of malnourishment, it was very frail and had lost nearly all its weight. Even its teeth had blackened.
