When the storm of war surged across Ukraine, countless people fled for their lives. Amidst this chaos, many pets were left behind, victims of the same devastation that displaced their human companions.

One such heartbreaking story is that of a pit bull, brought to light by the YouTube channel “Love Furry Friends – Rescue.” This abandoned pet was found chained and starving, the metal links biting into his neck, his pleading eyes begging for rescue.

The animal rescue team leaped into action after hearing about this desperate pit bull stranded in a deserted village. The dog’s joy was palpable when he saw them approaching; his tail wagged in anticipation, a beacon of hope in his dire situation.

Deprived of food and water and burdened by a heavy chain not even attached to a collar, the pit bull had sustained an injury. The rescuers’ first act was to feed him, watching as he fervently devoured every morsel.

After satisfying his hunger, they freed him from his chain, liberating him from the muddy ground that had been his prison. They transported him to a safe home to receive the love and care he deserved.

Back at the shelter, Toby, as they named him, received what might have been his first bath. The brown water testified to his time spent alone outdoors. But now, Toby was no longer alone.
