Our cuddly family pets are worthy of our endless compassion and care. The moment we bring them into our lives, we pledge to prioritize their happiness.
Regrettably, numerous dog owners disregard and abandon their canine companions without a trace of guilt. The forsaken dogs struggle to survive while confronting threats daily.
Bunny, an affectionate puppy, understands all too well the sting of neglect and being forsaken by her owners. After being struck by a car, her owner chose to abandon her.
That’s when kind-hearted individuals intervened to assist her.
Compassionate People Come To Her Aid
Upon receiving a notification about an abandoned dog who had been struck by a vehicle, Pris, a team member at a charitable organization named Los Adoptables, realized she needed to assist immediately.
She collaborated with dog rescuers, Henry Friedman and Sydney Ferbrache, alongside The Animal Pad, a non-profit canine rescue located in San Diego, California. Together, they rushed to save Bunny.
“When we initially arrived, the dog owner was playing soccer with a friend. Meanwhile, his dog was languishing on the ground. Completely unconcerned,” Friedman recounted in a video on TikTok.
Their spirits sank upon witnessing the swollen and injured dog who appeared to have surrendered to despair.
Friedman and The Animal Pad swiftly brought the pup to a veterinarian. After performing a thorough examination, the veterinarian disclosed that the dog’s facial swelling was a result of dog bites.
Sadly, the pup’s hind legs could not be repaired. Bunny needed to undergo emergency surgery to have her back legs amputated.
Fortunately, Bunny’s operation went well, and she began to feel considerably improved.
Experiencing Safety And Affection
After a week, Bunny was released from the clinic, and she was embraced into a lovely foster home. Her foster mother, Lauren, adored cuddling with the pup, and Bunny was thrilled to feel secure and cherished.
She bounced around the house, excited to experience the warmth of a family environment.
During a visit from Friedman, Bunny was elated to see him. The pup welcomed him with playful licks to his face.
Once Bunny had fully recovered, Friedman wanted to take her for a stroll. He carried the dog in a backpack.
Even though they both relished their time together, it was evident that Bunny required a specialized wheelchair to navigate independently.
A commenter wrote under the original TikTok video regarding Bunny, stating that she “deserves the Mercedes Benz of wheelchairs.”
Initially, Friedman found the comment amusing. However, after some reflection, he decided to reach out to Mercedes Benz.
“Bunny deserves the very best. I proposed the concept to Mercedes, and they were absolutely thrilled. They agreed to provide Bunny with a custom wheelchair,” Friedman stated.
Thrilled To Move About In Her Mercedes Wheelchair
Mercedes Benz collaborated with Eddie’s Wheels, a company that fabricates specialized wheelchairs for pets with disabilities, to create a wheelchair tailored to Bunny’s unique requirements.
Bunny’s companions were eager to witness her wheelchair firsthand.
That day finally came! The moment Bunny stepped into the Mercedes Benz dealership in San Diego County, everyone erupted in cheers, welcoming her with applause.
Once the wheelchair harness was placed on her and secured, Bunny’s expression brightened. She began to dash around with a huge smile on her face. The pup was overjoyed.
She could hardly wait to enjoy a walk with her foster mother. As she meandered through the streets, Bunny captured the hearts of countless strangers she encountered.
She was eager to share her joy, sniffing their hands and greeting them.
It remains uncertain whether Bunny found her permanent family, but I am fully confident that a pup as lovely and cheerful as her will soon achieve her happy conclusion.
