Rescue workers at Wonderful Animals Home are used to such heartbreaking situations, but they were shocked when they found the dog motionless in the snow.
The poor dog had been here for two days already, so it was no wonder he was frightened. It wasn’t easy for these kind people to watch over a dog that couldn’t move a single part of its body.
Moreover, he was so sad and scared that there was no spark of hope or happiness in his eyes. He was living proof of the consequences of cruelty on the part of our most trusted dogs.
That’s why rescuers decided to help this poor dog and put a smile on his face.

dog in the snow
It was not easy for the rescue team to get this dog out of this area. In addition to being shivering from the cold and fear, I was so cold that I couldn’t move my legs at all. But being wrapped in a warm blanket and receiving lots of love helped me relax a little. Eventually, one of the rescue workers was able to pick him up and carry him to his car.
They immediately brought him to the vet, where he was crying from pain and still didn’t trust anyone. Those were painful moments for them to witness, but there was no other way to save him from his misery.
When he calmed down a bit, the vet was finally able to examine him. His body temperature was so low that he probably would not have survived if he had stayed another day in that place.
Luckily, with their help, he slowly began to recover. It was a real little miracle, considering that they estimated that he was around 15 years old.
Unfortunately, even though his body temperature returned to normal, he still couldn’t move. After the doctor did a more detailed examination, he discovered that this dog was suffering from a pelvic fracture and hip dislocation.
It certainly couldn’t be a coincidence but another consequence of his owner’s heartlessness. His saviors, as well as the veterinarian, himself, were most shaken by this very fact.
Nevertheless, now he was finally safe and among people who would only give him unconditional love.
Happy Days
On the last day of his stay at the veterinary clinic, the rescuers saw a smile on this dog’s face for the first time. It was the best sign that he was healing, but the road to full recovery was still very long.
After a week spent in the clinic, he was finally discharged, and his rescuers took him to their shelter. There, they provided him with everything he needed, and he also met many new canine friends who were a true balm for his wounded soul.
Although he was still very weak and also limped, he did not stop playing in the yard of the shelter. He was the oldest dog there, and the other pups respected him a lot. In just a few days, his life became a blessing.
In the meantime, people at the shelter reported this case and managed to find his former owner. That man refused to admit guilt and made the excuse that Morozko, as he called him, actually strayed in that place.
It was a silly explanation for them, but they didn’t want to bother too much with him. They directed all their energy toward Morozko to enable him to spend his remaining days in happiness and well-being.
Even though he went through a nightmare, Morozko was now experiencing his most joyful moments, and he didn’t take the smile off his face anymore.
