Animal rescue teams are used to finding animals at their worst and saving them from the brink of death, however, when a team of rescuers found a stray on the side of railroad tracks, they couldn’t believe their eyes.
After railroad workers found a stray dog lying beside the train tracks, they realized something was very wrong and immediately called for help. The dog, who was later named Deepak, had been hit by a passing train and most of his limbs were completely shredded.
“His front leg was attached by just a few threads of tissue,” Animal Aid Unlimited wrote. “We had never before rescued a dog so horrifically injured. With broken hearts, we thought we had to put him to sleep.” However, they decided to try and see if the dog could be saved.
For five hours, a vet worked tirelessly to save Deepak and amputate his crushed legs. And despite not being able to walk anymore, Deepak finally recovered six months later, and spends his days at Habitat Heaven swimming and playing with other dogs with limited use of their limbs. “They have full, stimulated, curious, inquisitive, territorial, happy and lovely lives,” a woman at the rescue said.
