Remaining Unbothered
There was another thing that really surprised the people that went to save the pit bull. It would be extremely scary for most animals to be surrounded by vultures that could any minute pounce on you. However, the eight-month-old dog apparently did not look like she noticed them also. It was as if she did not have a care in the world to have these thirsty vultures surround her.
A Disheartened Dog
The animal service team soon discovered that the dog had been immensely disheartened. It was as though poor Lilo had given up on her life, accepting the fact it was not going to get any better, any time soon. They felt like she had already lost all her hope to have a more comfortable life as being caged in that plastic doghouse had been her reality for far too long.
Taking Custody
After seeing the depressing state that the dog was in, the rescuers wanted to help make a change for little Lilo. They wanted to make sure that the dog got a future that she deserved. So what did they decide on doing next? Well, the animal rescue team took Lilo into their custody to keep her away from the vultures that were ready to prance on her.
Note For Her Owner
But was she not owned by somebody else? Did Lilo not have an owner that was supposed to take care of her and keep her health in check? Well, the rescuers decided to leave a note on Lilo’s owner’s front door. They could not bear the sight nor the thought of the poor dog going through such a horrifying existence any longer. They took her away from the danger and threat that her owner left her in.
Left In A Bad State
When the animal welfare team took the little dog into their own hand, they ran some medical tests on her to see just how bad of a state she was in. They found her to be malnourished which was not all that surprising, after being left out in the open for so long. Little Lilo had a few tears come out and even had scabs on her ears with lesions on her tail.
No Complications
All in all, Lilo was in a mildly okay state and did not seem to show any signs of serious illness or injuries. Even though she had probably spent most of her life outside in the cold, the vet found Lilo to have a very stable health. After going through all of her medical tests and checking on her, they found her to be in a good state and did not possess complications.
