Images of a dog being used as a cruel plaything by having glue and mud poured over its body have sparked outrage and heartbreak among animal lovers.
This poor dog, named Pascal, was found in Istanbul, Turkey, in a severely pitiful condition. It is reported that Pascal was used as a toy by a group of children who poured glue all over his body and then dunked him in mud. After tormenting him for fun, the children abandoned Pascal, leaving him struggling helplessly in the muddy puddle.
Pascal tried to use the last bit of his strength to scrape off the glue and mud stuck in his fur.
However, the glue-mud mixture had already hardened like a layer of “cement” on his body.
This “cement” layer caused poor blood circulation in his body, putting him in a critical condition.
Pascal hid in a corner out of fear. Fortunately, he was discovered by a staff member from a dog and cat rescue center and taken in for treatment.
There, the vets removed all the “cement” from Pascal’s skin. However, due to poor blood circulation, part of his ear had become necrotic.
The vets said Pascal was suffering from malnutrition and severe psychological trauma.
The poor dog was always fearful and on guard against everything around him.
Next week, Pascal will undergo blood tests to prevent infectious diseases and help him reintegrate into normal life.
The stories and images of Pascal have caused widespread outrage, as many people condemned the cruel “prank” those children committed.
