Abused And Got Deformed By His Owner, This Dog Now Looks Unrecognizable After Surgery

A post that went viral on Facebook alerted animal rights activists in Houston to a dog that needed immediate help. The dog’s cruel owner maltreated and deformed him!

The dog, Gus, was ready to be rescued as he immediately ran towards the rescuers! Gus’ head was deformed and swollen severely due to a shoestring that was wrapped around his neck.

The local neighbors claimed that Gus had been stuck in this bad condition for more than a year! When the rescuers arrived at the neighboring animal hospital, they discovered that the dog needed surgery. However, the severe scar tissue caused them to stop.

The dog was moved to the Texas A&M Small Animal Clinic where a soft tissue expert will care for him until he is prepared for surgery. Thankfully, the dog got surgery and is currently in good health.



Luckily for Gus, he will spend the rest of his life in a forever home thanks to the kind family that adopted him. How adorable!
