Whether at the hands of humans, or purely by accident, animals fall in harms way every single day. Luckily this dog, who had fallen into a pool of hot tar, was spotted by by a kind-hearted passerby who called Animal Aid Unlimited, a vital rescue center, hospital and sanctuary for injured and ill street animals in India.
Each day the animal rescue team finds, treats, and feeds dozens of injured or abandoned street animals in hopes of nursing these desperate animals back to health. In order to keep these animals from ending up in the same situation they were found in, the organization continues to provide life-long care for the animals that have no home.
This dog was found stuck to the ground. Once the hot tar dried, he was completely incapable of moving.
The passerby called Animal Aid Unlimited for help, and within the hour, the team arrived to start the lengthy process of removing the tar from his coat.
The team used vegetable oil to separate the tar from the dog’s fur.
After two days and three full oil scrubs, the tar was fully removed from the dog’s coat, and his joy was infectious.
Take a look at the entire video to see this dog’s heartwarming transformation:
