This Sad Dog Was Found Abandoned In Parking Lot With Nothing But A Bed For Comfort
Bluebelle was left behind in one of the loneliest ways possible, in an empty parking lot with only a bed to keep her off the hot concrete. She waited there quietly in Austin, Texas, hoping someone would notice her before it was too late.
When animal protection officers finally arrived, they found a sad, tired dog who still managed to greet them with gentle eyes and a little trust. The Austin Animal Center stepped in, and what happened next showed just how much a little care can change a life.
Bluebelle’s rescue is heartbreaking at first, but her story quickly turns into something far more hopeful.
This is Bluebelle
She was found in an empty parking lot in Austin, Texas.
Watch her on video:
Bluebelle, estimated to be about 9 years old, is receiving treatment for demodectic mange, an infestation of skin mites, and for conjunctivitis in both eyes.
Besides all the health issues, she is in good spirits. She has the cutest little smile and even a little pep in her step. We have wonderful Animal Care staff and vets who have been taking close care of her.
The Austin Animal Center staff realized that Bluebelle would be more comfortable in a home with a family around her. Thanks to her wonderful personality, she quickly found a foster family.
Despite looking in rough shape, her heart is still full, and she is extremely welcoming to humans. She recently had a meet-and-greet with a foster family and their dog, and it went well, so Bluebelle will be leaving the shelter soon!
And if you need another “left behind” twist, read about King at Burger King, with a note, while his owner was supposedly unaware.
She is now getting the care she needs at the Austin Animal Center
Once her health issues are resolved, Bluebelle will begin her search for a forever family.
And will soon be up for adoption
This poor dog has suffered a lot but now has great and kind people around her who will help her get better and forget all the torment she’s been through.
Bluebelle’s story will have a happy ending, but many animals out there are less fortunate and need our help.
Thousands more are waiting to be adopted… There is much work to be done. Remember, adopt, don’t shop.
Bluebelle’s parking-lot rescue feels similar to the abandoned dog braving a blizzard for days.
