As an injured dog sat dejected and bleeding in the middle of a busy highway in Assumption Parish, Louisiana, everybody ignored her plight and just drove by. The heartbreaking situation was observed by a Villalobos Rescue Center employee who was able to stop and get her to a safe place.

The Villalobos Rescue Center wrote:

This morning one of our employees here in Assumption Parish, witnessed this dog in the middle of a VERY busy main highway. The cars just flew by her, no one even stopping to help.
Our employees were able to scoop her up and bring her to our main Sanctuary location until the vet opened.

The initial assumption was that the dog had been struck by a car, but after getting a closer look, it was determined that she was likely a victim of dogfighting…presumably a discarded bait dog. The rescue agency said:

Covered from head to toe, in multiple dog bites, this sweet girl was so grateful for the help. She was all too happy to finally find someone with a kind touch.

Spring

The rescue group has decided to name her Spring, after an old Tanya Tucker song about a young girl who has had a rough life. Explaining, “She will survive but the emotional wounds will take longer to heal than the physical ones.”

Anyone hoping to donate towards Spring’s veterinary care can do so at this link to the rescue group.

  1. Poor baby girl. The moment I saw her picture I knew she was a bait dog. Once the old girls can’t have puppies any more they use them for bait then dump or kill them. She’s in good hands now with Tia and her team, where she will be loved.

  2. PLEASE SUPPORT DEAREST SPRING! WE CAN TRY TO MAKE UP FOR ALL
    THE HEARTLESS LUNATICS THAT LEFT HER INJURED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE
    HIGHWAY!
