Someone Abandoned This Puppy After Getting Him as a Gift – But Now He’s Finally Getting Care! (VIDEO)

This rescue from Hope For Paws is the perfect example of why giving pets as surprise gifts is a truly bad idea. The team was contacted about a scared dog roaming alone in the streets and hiding in the bushes. Once they arrived at the spot, they worked fast to enclose the area and prevent the dog from escaping. But when they looked under the bushes and finally saw the dog, the rescuers were surprised to find not a big, adult dog, as they were expecting, but a little fluff-ball of a frightened puppy!

To lure him out of his hideout, the rescuers used little bits of a cheeseburger – a greatly successful tool with most scared pups that are, in the end, usually also very hungry. The puppy soon began to wag his little tail and, slowly but surely, follow the bits of food out of the hiding place.

The pup got a new name – Fox, and he was taken to the rescue to get rehydrated and checked over. The carers discovered that little Fox was microchipped, but when they called the number, the person on the other end informed them that she did not want the puppy anymore and had been given the dog as a gift, which she did not really want.

Luckily, Fox is now in the care of people who would never abandon him. This little pup is living it up at his new foster home where he not only has other dogs to play with – but a pig too!
