They Were Shocked When They Saw A Dog Hanging From A Balcony, What Happened Next? OMG!

Having a pet in your home means taking care of them in any way you can. There’s no reason to have them if you’re only going to neglect them or abuse them, because they could always be somewhere else in a happier home. Thankfully, for this dog, his rescue came just in time before something terrible could have happened.


The German Shepherd had been left alone in an apartment in Egypt, chained up to a balcony for days and without any food or water. She was so desperate for food that she tried to jump off the balcony to escape.

But the chain held her in place, and she ended up hanging over the side with the metal digging into her neck. She hung three stories above the ground, afraid for her life.

But thanks to the efforts of a good samaritan when they heard her cries for help. The neighbor and some rescuers got her back to safety on the balcony, but she wasn’t out of the woods yet.

She was found to be emaciated and the chain had cut into her neck so deeply that the wound was severe.

She was taken to the Egyptian Society for Mercy to Animals shelter where she was treated for her wounds and condition.

A few weeks after her recovery, the shelter paired up with Special Needs Animal Rescue & Rehabilitation to get the dog, now named Bella, flown to the United States so that she could remain in a foster home and receive the love and attention she deserves.

“I’m Not Leaving You, Mama!” This is What Love Looks Like.

UPDATE: Lizzie and Phantom are currently recovering in an outdoor koala ward within the  Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital . They’re doing swimmingly; Phantom is both gaining weight and exploring his temporary habitat. And of course, mama and baby are sharing more adorable cuddles! For most species in the animal kingdom, the bond between mother and baby is incredibly strong. That's pretty much inarguable. But last week, two koalas in Australia further proved it. After they were hit by a car, Lizzie and her joey, Phantom were welcomed into the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital. Six-month-old Phantom had escaped the accident unscathed. Lizzie, however, wasn’t looking so good, what with facial trauma and a collapsed lung. In order to survive, she needed to go under the surgeon’s knife. But this marsupial mama wasn’t alone during the life-saving procedure. Phantom accompanied her and clung to her as she received treatment. The vets let them be; Phantom was too y...

The Sound Of This Baby Rhino Wailing After Its Mother Was Killed By Poachers Will Haunt You

It’s one of the most sorrowful sounds you’ll ever hear, but it’s also a sad reality check for anyone who thinks protected species are safe from illegal poaching. In a video released this in July, a baby rhino named Davi cries for his mother after she was shot and killed by poachers. Most rhinos spend at least three years with their mothers before weaning,  the Dodo  reports, but Davi’s childhood was cut short at just 8 months old. The baby rhino stood close by his mother’s lifeless body until rescuers arrived. They fitted her with earplugs and a blindfold to calm his anxiety on the way to The Rhino Orphanage in South Africa. Source: YouTube/Terrence Daniels Davi huddles close to his mother’s dead body. It was there that Davi spent the night crying. “His calls for mom echoed deeply and urgently throughout the night, but two carers have been with him every step of the way,”  caretakers posted . “At least he is in good physical condition [and] has no injuries...
