A resident of Fort Worth, Texas, called an animal rescue center for help when she witnessed a stray poodle mix being tormented by juveniles in her neighborhood. She sent the rescue center a pitiful photo showing the unfortunate dog lying on a sidewalk, looking almost as though he were dead.

It was the summer of 2014 when Judy Obregon, founder of The Abandoned Ones, got the call and went looking for the poor pooch. “I started crying because I felt like I didn’t do enough,” she recalled after seeing the photo of the lifeless-looking dog. “I felt like I wasn’t there on time to get to this dog before he ended up in this situation.”
