The sick dog with no nose, broken teeth is probably the most miserable dog in the world
More than anything else, a sick puppy who has been abused by other dogs and is missing his nose needs a home. According to a local news story, he has a lot of potential dog moms and dads right now.
The dog has had a hard life since he was abandoned in Puerto Rico. He has a number of health problems and has been bitten by other stray dogs.
However, Sniffles has made great progress since his initial case and may soon find a home after visiting the US for treatment and sharing his experience with a Florida-based animal charity.
It is believed that Sniffles had to endure horrific living conditions in Puerto Rico. He has whipworms, hookworms, and other parasites, so his teeth need immediate treatment.
According to reports, he was attacked by other stray dogs, as a result of which he suffered numerous injuries and various diseases, and as a result he no longer had a nose. He was eventually adopted into a family in the United States after a local animal rescue organization found him in Puerto Rico, where he thought he could receive better medical care.
However, this was only a temporary job. Cold was in danger because he needed constant medical care and kept escaping. He eventually found a home with Poodle & Pooch Rescue in Florida, a volunteer-run organization that rescues 500 to 600 puppies a year.
On December 19, rescue forces received him and immediately began searching for a place for him. He was featured on Orlando’s news program WESH on December 24 as a result. After that, Sniffles’ fortune changed. At least 100 people contacted the shelter to express their interest after hearing about his adoption.
He will need a committed adopter who will clear his nasal passages twice daily and provide him with daily eye drops to treat dry eyes. Shelter spokeswoman Rebecca Lynch said in a statement to DailyMail.com
He has numerous parasites, including whipworms and hookworms, which could be a sign that his living conditions were unsanitary before he entered our care. It also showed evidence of the tick-borne disease ehrlichiosis. He is receiving treatment and should fully recover. Sniffles is a strong man who still loves others despite his illness and difficulties.
“Young Sniffles is a tough boy,” Lynch continued. “Despite his past, Sniffles is starting to come out of his shell after initially showing some hesitation and confusion. He wags his tail, enjoys being outside, and gets along well with other dogs, and because of his illness, He makes adorable little grunting noises. He also loves to be petted. He’s a sweet, playful pup, so we’re glad his story has sparked so much interest since it was broadcast locally in Central Florida.
“It is unfortunate that Sniffles’ account is not exceptional, despite the peculiarity of his outlook. Every week, Sniffles and other dogs with special requirements are accepted into our rescue.
The organization hopes that anyone who decides not to adopt Sniffles will adopt another cat with special needs, give them away to one, or foster animals in lieu of some of the excellent alternatives available to them. Neighborhood resident Genesis Diaz was nursing a cold in the meantime.
When she woke up this morning, Wish said, he was staring at her from the side of her bed. Suddenly he rushed towards her, spun her around and started licking her face. People who rescue animals are also fascinated.
I said he’s just a good old man. He captured the hearts of everyone at the facility, says Michelle Walker, the clinic’s medical director. He is a trustworthy dog. Simply put, it looks weird.
