Shocking. This Dog Was Wandering The Streets For 2 Weeks Like This

This is one story that’s hard to believe happened, but important to learn from and share to help fix the situation for this particular dog and all other animals. Before going any further, we want to warn everyone that the video contains graphic content. If you do not want watch the video, please read on to learn of Mara’s story and how you can help.

Mara was a dog that was found on the streets of Kardista, Greece with a completely broken jaw. Her jaw was so broken that it was literally hanging from her mouth. She was wandering the streets of the small village for two weeks with this broken jaw, in a great deal of pain and struggling to eat. While it’s unbelievable that it took two weeks for her to be rescued, a good samaritan found her and called Diasozo, an animal rescue. Diasozo rushed her to the hospital, where she got an x-ray. After looking at the x-ray, it is thought that her injury was the result of a blunt force trauma, like being kicked. She was then rushed into surgery to fix the jaw dislocation and break. Luckily, Mara is in recovery now and is doing great, but still needs a home. You can fast forward to 0:53 to see Mara’s amazing recovery!

PAWsitive put together the below video, and in doing so, also shared Ermioni’s story, who was one of the animal rescuers:

I am trying to write but tears filled my eyes .. this poor dog (4.8 kg!!!!) lived at the streets in a village of Karditsa and had a completely broken jaw… a jaw that was hanging !!!! Many eyes have seen her, some hands has fed her
(She couldn’t eat she tried to lie down and lick with her tongue at the side …) and no one helped this dog!!!! .. only one person, we thank him so so much, informed us immediately when he saw her. Can’t fit in my mind the pain that passed and passes this tiny dog .. 15 days without normal food and without even to be able to close her mouth … In the photographs you can see clearly the roots of the back tooth , are literally uprooted! The entire denture is in the air, and uprooted without anesthesia .. Can you even imagine that????? Kick .. we feel sure that it was made by kicking .. From human? horse? Bear? God knows .. The injury is enormous, will do surgery and May God help so everything will well .. May God give to Mara and us courage … We are all literally crashed …
Please share and help us with the veterinary costs, it will be quite large …”

Mara will need additional surgeries, but you can help her through donations, or even adopt her.
