The iPittytheBull Foundation stepped in to help a frightened dog found hiding under a car.
Initially thought to be pregnant, the animal was rescued by Bri, who managed to earn the dog’s trust enough to coax her out from beneath the vehicle.
Bri promptly took the terrified canine to a vet for a thorough examination.
At the veterinary clinic, the team suspected the dog might be carrying puppies, but an initial set of x-rays showed this was not the case.
Despite the absence of a pregnancy, the vet found the dog, later named Stella, in poor health with several open wounds.
Stella is currently being treated with fluids and antibiotics while the team continues to monitor her condition.
Plans for a follow-up x-ray are underway to gain additional insights into her injuries, which include lung contusions.
Worryingly, Stella faces a grave risk if she has any tears in her intestines, adding to concerns about her critically low blood count, which demands an urgent blood transfusion.
Bri chose the name Stella for the dog, as a symbol of the new, better life they hope to give her.
For what might be the first time in her life, Stella now rests on a comfortable bed, cozy under a soft blanket.
The foundation’s aim is to guide her away from her harsh past and into a brighter future.
One team member expressed heartfelt affection, saying, “Oh Stella, you have truly found a place in all our hearts. We love you so much.”
Thanks to the efforts of the iPittytheBull Foundation, Stella now thrives in a loving home with her new adoptive family, shifting from a life of hardship to one filled with care and warmth.
