VOSD+SAW Rescue brings together an expert team and 2 ambulances to rescue and rehabilitate stray dogs in Pune. We are collaborating with SAW and other NGOs in Pune city to save the lives of stray dogs who have met with accidents or are ill.
One such stray pup Jiya, was spotted with a rubber band tied around her face. The pressure and the lack of blood circulation in the facial region had caused the face to swell up and eyes to shut permanently.
A passerby saw Jiya in deep agony and informed our team; we rushed to the spot and immediately rescued the little pup. She was admitted to Animal Rescue Trust (ART), Pune, where her treatment was promptly initiated. First, the rubber band, which had penetrated deep into her flesh, was removed. Then, she was put on painkillers and medicines to reduce the swelling. Despite, relentless medical intervention Jiya’s life could not be saved. The poor dog died at the centre while still undergoing treatment.
Jiya became a victim of man’s cruelty and man’s apathy. Had someone removed the rubber band earlier, the playful pup would still be alive. Let her death be a lesson for all of us, let us never shy away from helping a vulnerable dog.
