When things get a little difficult and complicated, unfortunately some dog owners choose to give up their pets rather than deal with the problem.
Even if the problem is easily solved. It’s a story about a little man named Buzz. Buzz once had a family, but unfortunately no one loved him enough to care for him for the rest of his life. Little Buzz gets sick and instead of giving him the treatment he needs, his owners decide to throw him out on the street because they “don’t want to take care of him.”
Capturing a scared and sick homeless man
Buzz was walking alone on the street when he was spotted by a kind tourist who decided to contact a local rescue group instead of just passing by and forgetting about this sick dog.
Mission Pawsible is a nonprofit organization that helps homeless animals. The facility is run by an amazing woman, Prue Barber, who is the founder of the rescue and a solo lifeguard.
However, Buzz was so scared and nervous that she literally had a village to catch him. Eventually, with the help of some kind-hearted dog lovers, Prue was able to find little Buzz in a small village after several days of searching.
“The sighting of Buzz was absolutely terrifying. He was complete skin and bones, and he was ravaged in scabies, but he just had these incredible eyes that just begged for help,” Prue told Cuddle Buddies.
After asking around, Prue learned that Buzz did once have a family who admitted to kicking him on the streets because they didn’t want to deal with him anymore.
They even firmly stated that they did not want him back at all.
Buzz’s condition could have been easily cured if they had only taken a little more care of him.
Once Buzz was finally captured, he was immediately transported to the vet for his urgent medical care.
A Remarkable TransFURmation
“Well, one man’s trash is another’s treasure and Buzz has landed on all four paws in our care where he will be medically treated, loved and healed to become the best version of himself,” Mission Pawsible wrote in their post.
Buzz received medical treatment for scabies, and Prue ensured he was being fed a natural, raw diet to help with fur growth.
His recovery, thankfully, didn’t take very long, and once he was healthier, he came to his foster home with Prue and her other dogs.
Slowly, Buzz started opening up and improving each day. He became playful, energetic, and cheeky. “He was becoming more and more a dog he was meant to be, and his trust issues were none,” Prue said.
After about four weeks, Buzz found his love of life again, and after about seven weeks, his fur had completely grown back, making him almost unrecognizable.
Buzz was now a beautiful Golden Retriever mix with stunning silky fur – the complete opposite of how he was at the beginning of the story.
Fortunately, Buzz’s story has a happy ending because not only was he now completely healthy, but he was also adopted by an incredible family.
“He is their world and their center. They spoil him so much. He’s allowed on the bed, on the couch, and he comes to the beach with them. He is just one of the happiest doggos you’re ever gonna meet,” Prue concluded.
