Dog Tied to Pole Extends Paw in Heartfelt Plea to Officer

In Pompano, Florida, there were supposedly two dogs fastened to utility poles. The investigation was put in the hands of Officer Angela Laurella.

Nobody knew how long the dogs had been there or who had left them because there were no cameras in the area. Officer Laurella, on the other hand, realized that there was no purpose in wasting time because the outside temperature was already over 100 degrees.

She ran over and saw a weak gray dog holding onto a pole so tightly that it had rendered him immobile.

The Dodo said that Amy Roman, the president and founder of 100+ Abandoned Dogs of Everglades, Florida, “He was tied to a pole with a very short leash.” He was terribly underweight and dehydrated, and every rib and bone protruded.

The dog, who was now called Liam, bent his head and put a paw in the officer’s hand as if asking to be given a pet. He appeared to shrink and extend his paw when she walked up to him quietly, according to Roman, as if pleading for her assistance in escaping the predicament.

Liam had a difficult childhood and needed particular care, so Officer Laurella recruited the help of the rescue 100+ Abandoned Dogs of Everglades Florida. Roman was happy to take Liam despite the fact that the rescue was overloaded.

After several trips to the vet, Liam, a 17-pound pocket bulldog, is now recovering at Roman’s house. He is now becoming stronger and eating food more efficiently than before.

Roman remarked, “He gets so much love all the time.” His body adjusts to being fed on the hour every hour. Since volunteers are currently boiling chicken and rice in large batches, he is having a great time.

Despite the fact that he still has a long way to go, including numerous appointments to the vet, Liam has been a joy since being saved.

“He loves everyone, and this dog doesn’t have a mean bone in his body,” Roman added. “That says it all to me,” the speaker continued, “because he’s still so appreciative and forgiving after all he’s been through.”

Several pets in Florida have lately been abandoned or given up for adoption, including Liam.

Roman hopes pet owners will first seek aid and resources from shelters and rescues before deciding they can no longer care for their animals because so many shelters are already at capacity. The best example of how every dog should be given a second chance is Liam.
