Dogs
Beneath the surface: Exposing the story of heroism and sacrifice of a brave gentleman who braved dangerous depths to save five puppies, who were on the brink of death.
Thor, the dog, was discovered impaled with hundreds of quills by its owner in Sao Paulo, Brazil. According to pictures, hundreds of yellow quills coated the golden brown dog’s muzzle, forehead, nose, ears, and legs.
Adriano Bertoline, an unemployed guy, began an online treatment campaign when he couldn’t pay a veterinarian bill.
‘Good morning, folks…’ he posted on Twitter. I woke up this morning to discover my dog in this condition… Is there a clinic or veterinarian that can help him? ‘I’m afraid I can’t pay.’
A councillor, Dr. Jose Roberto Apolari, noticed the dog owner’s appeal and decided to assist.
According to Thor’s owner, this is the dog’s second encounter with a porcupine in a year.
In February 2021, Adriano’s buddy, who worked at a private veterinary clinic at the time, assisted the wounded dog.
