A year ago, a dog named Buddy became famous after being the victim of violence at the hands of a child, leaving scars on his face.

But this dog had hope and in recent months he has made a full recovery. Now, a year later, Buddy’s new owner has confirmed that he has “full confidence” and that he really likes him.

Readers should note that some images in this story may be distracting.

Buddy first appeared in the news last April when he returned home after being set on fire with scars on his face. His skateboard was on fire, the smoke was so thick that his eyes were swollen and he couldn’t see anything. There was also a rope around his neck, which he could have squeaked to pull him down.h-a-n-h

It was later discovered that the person who burned the dog was a child. The boy admitted to burning the dog, but Mississippi law stipulates that he will not be charged.h-a-n-h

Buddy’s injuries were so serious that he had to be turned over to the Tunica Humane Society so he could receive proper care. His veterinarians were surprised by the situation and warned at the time that the dog had a long road ahead, saying that “right now, the prognosis is not good.”h-a-n-h

Sandy Williams, who runs the Tunica Humane Society, told FOX 13 she couldn’t understand how someone could be so сгᴜeɩ. “Buddy was a very friendly dog ​​who didn’t bite. “He goes to all the places that the children in the area go.”

Dr. ElizaƄeth Swanson, associate professor and ʋeterinary surgeon, told WTVA: “Buddy’s vital signs are good, but this is just the top of a very tall mountain to climb.”h-a-n-h

Buddy was later taken to Mississippi State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine for more care, and veterinarians were amazed at how happy he was despite everything.h-a-n-h

In an update, the SPCA said: “He was in great shape, wagging his tail and was very helpful.”

Buddy continued to improve over time. Buddy couldn’t stand with a towel wrapped around his head, but the veterinarians were glad to see that the burns hadn’t hurt his eyelids.h-a-n-h

The Humane Society wrote in fасeƄook that it continues to progress every day. “He never did anything wrong with his doctors. They have all been very happy with the results of their skin grafts. _gp wopd are very slow, but Buddy is making a lot of progress healing him.

“During your facelift today, it made a big difference in how your face looked. Buddy continues to improve, but he’s learning to do simple things. After a few months of improving, Buddy underwent skin grafts that caused him to need less care, so he could slowly feel like himself. “Now that’s not the case.” He has the ear tags, he is much happier and more playful. Last year, the Tunica Humane Society said, “I’m sure he’s very happy because his life is slowly returning to normal.”h-a-n-h

Buddy reached a big milestone in August when veterinarians finally removed his eye patch, leaving him alive for the first time in months.

The SPCA said: “His eyes were open and he was very conscious.” “YES, Buddy can still do it. This is the answer to your millions of prayers.”

“Buddy’s last real memory of ʋer was in the last seconds of his ʋida, just before a boy set his face on fire. This dog’s entire life was over in the blink of an eye.”h-a-n-h

This roog puppy finally being able to ʋer was a big step towards normality, and his keepers say his regopatu has started to shine.

Sandy Williams, who runs the Tunica Humane Society, told WREG that Buddy’s entire life has changed since he came to light of day.

“He is happy and playful, and he walks around the orta with a huge ball in his hand. He enjoys the balls. he саmina with them so that everyone can ʋer.”h-a-n-h

Buddy was rescued a year ago, and recently the SPCA shared good news: Buddy is now “completely cured.”

Buddy has been living with Dr. Swanson in a foster home and the veterinarian said Buddy is having the best time of his life.

The Tunica Humane Society wrote that his face is now completely healed. “He no longer has to wear an e-collar, which he loves! He now spends his days like any other dog. “Play tag, go for long walks and be pampered because he is a great dog!”

“Buddy’s amazing recovery from his near-death experience is a miracle, and all of his caregivers have much to be proud of.”

The Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine, which cared for Buddy, celebrated his recovery by reuniting with him.

“After many surgeries, hugs from everyone in the hospital, and games of tag, he is doing very well in his foster home!” She captioned the university in a Facebook post and shared a photo of Buddy happy and greeting him with all the veterinary staff.

It’s scary to think about what Buddy went through, but we’re so happy to see how far he’s come in the last year. Thanks to all the ʋeterinarians who helped him improve so quickly.h-a-n-h
