The discovery of a stray dog carrying a heavy iron collar around its neck shocked the police in Thai Nguyen, Son Tay province. The poor animal, wandering the streets with a 1kg iron ring embedded in its neck, painted a painful picture of neglect. The collar had likely been placed around the dog’s neck when it was just a puppy. But as the dog grew, the iron ring did not, pressing deeper into its neck and causing severe pain and suffering. The sight of the dog’s agony moved the rescue team to action.
Upon receiving reports, the police and rescue workers quickly arrived on the scene. The iron collar had dug so deeply into the dog’s skin that removing it seemed almost impossible. Rescue workers assessed the situation, realizing that removing the collar would require careful precision to avoid injuring the dog further. Using heavy-duty cutters, they tried various techniques, but each attempt revealed just how difficult and delicate the job would be.
The team persevered, carefully working to pry the iron ring loose. Throughout the process, the dog displayed a mixture of fear and relief, perhaps sensing that help was finally within reach. Despite the pain, it remained still, as if understanding that the rescuers were there to help. Each cut and adjustment brought the dog one step closer to freedom, as well as a better chance at a life free from the torment it had endured.
Finally, after hours of effort, the rescuers managed to cut through the iron collar. As they removed it, the damage to the dog’s neck became fully visible. Deep wounds encircled its neck where the collar had dug into its skin, a haunting reminder of the suffering it had endured. Without wasting any time, the rescue team brought the dog to a veterinarian, where the wounds were thoroughly cleaned and treated to prevent infection.
Under the gentle care of the veterinary team, the dog began to relax, sensing that it was safe at last. The staff worked diligently, applying ointments and cleaning each wound with great care. Gradually, the dog’s tense muscles relaxed, and it began to show signs of relief, its suffering finally coming to an end. With proper treatment, the dog’s neck would eventually heal, though scars would likely remain as evidence of its ordeal.
Meanwhile, local authorities launched an investigation to find whoever had inflicted such cruelty on the animal. The police are actively seeking information about the dog’s origins, hoping to bring the perpetrator to justice and prevent similar cases of abuse in the future. The story of this brave dog has sparked an outpouring of sympathy and support, highlighting the urgent need to protect and care for vulnerable animals.
