Hercules, the dog, was rescued from a certain death in Buenos Aires. When picked up, he was in truly bad shape (Warning!) but he recovered nicely.

Reminds me of the wonderful work done by Galgos del Sol.

Inspiring video. First, the fight in Hercules to not only live but thrive. Second, Pia's dedication to Hercules.

Thank you for posting.

Beautiful story. When living in Japan we saved a pit mix from starvation. This brings back so many memories.

Hercules! Doggo of song and story!
Hercules! Photos were kind of gory.
Fighting for his life
Pia by his side
With her care, and then,
Back to health again!
He's the mighty ... Hercules!

Well, it's a good thing I am alone in the office right now so that my sobbing doesn't disturb anyone.
