One neglected dog was found nearly starving to death

A compassionate resident discovered a neglected dog in a dire state, nearly on the brink of starvation. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, this person took immediate action, bringing this dog to the attention of the local police.

In September, the South Suburban Humane Society in Illinois took in a severely emaciated dog named Pumpkin. They stepped in to provide the critical care and attention that Pumpkin desperately needed.

CEO Emily Klehm described Pumpkin’s case as an “extreme” one, highlighting the severity of his emaciation and his inability to walk. The dedicated team faced the daunting challenge of nursing Pumpkin back to Health, but they were all determined to make a positive difference in his life.

To address his severely emaciated state, the vets took fluid and shaved his matted fur. Despite the challenging circumstances, Pumpkin began showing signs of improvement, prompting the decision to place him in foster care with a shelter employee.

The shelter shared the initial progress on Facebook, expressing gratitude for Pumpkin’s resilience and acknowledging the long journey ahead.

“Thankfully, we got him into foster care, where he is starting to improve and stand on his own again,” the shelter wrote on Facebook. “His journey is still long, but we are incredibly proud of him so far.”

But in the weeks since has been making incredible strides

Updates from the shelter: Pumpkin’s remarkable transformation—he transitioned from being unable to stand to confidently walking around the yard, wagging his tail.

Though visibly thin, Pumpkin has been steadily regaining weight, a positive indicator of his ongoing recovery. “This little man is progressing, and we cannot wait to see how much more he continues to improve!” South Suburban Humane Society wrote.

Pumpkin’s backstory is still unclear, but the shelter says he will be placed up for adoption once he gets medical clearance.

“Pumpkin will need a home that understands that he was severely neglected,” Klehm told Newsweek. “He doesn’t know how to be a dog, so everything from leash walking to toys are all new experiences for him. An experienced dog family would be best.”

Despite the heartbreaking neglect Pumpkin endured for an extended period, his resilience and positive response to care have been heartening for those involved in his recovery.

In the meantime, he’s doing well and loves his foster home. Here, Pumpkin is not only regaining weight but also experiencing the warmth and comfort of a loving environment.

The contrast between his past neglect and present well-being underscores the power of compassion. If you love him, leave comments below and share this article with your family and friends.
