A Severe Wound
What Kelly saw was definitely something that would not only disappoint but scar Kelly forever. When she took off his harness, Kelly saw that on Rocco’s chest, a huge gash of around 6 inches long and 1.5 inches deep was present. To her shock, she had not noticed that such a horrific scar had been on Rocco’s body all along. The harness that he was wearing has completely hidden this.
A Deep Cut
It is times like these that you wish animals can talk. Since Rocco could not tell Kelly that he had a huge scar on his chest, there was no way for her to ever guess that it would be there. The terrible scar had been badly infected so there was no chance for Kelly to even find that out until she took the harness off. Rocco’s cut was not a minor one so she knew he had to be taken to the vet as soon as possible.
Need For A Vet
So Kelly hurried to get her new dog the help he needed. When they got to the animal hospital, they quickly examined his condition. What the vets found out was that Rocco’s infection could be controlled. He was one lucky dog because the cut seemed to be quite serious. Then, Rocco received a few antibiotics and a pain reliever. They also informed Kelly that after the infection healed up, Rocco would be fit to be operated on.
Possible Recovery
Since she did not know what to expect Kelly was happy to hear about the fact that Rocco would be able to recover soon. Indeed, it was a lovely news to hear that the new dog she had just taken responsibility for would be able to overcome his cut and get the proper treatment he needed. There was a big question mark that started to hover around Kelly’s head. Who had done such a nasty thing to Rocco?
A Neglected Pup
It turns out, Rocco had not been taken care of, in fact, he had gone through what seems like a horrific mistreatment. When Kelly took him to the vet and they took a close examination of Rocco, the found out the startling truth behind his past. He had not been treated with love and care at all. In fact, it was all clear now that Rocco’s harness was the cause for his severe infection.
Kelly Gets Mad
As she learned about the dog she had just adopted, Kelly was filled with shock to learn about his harsh upbringing. The doctors had informed Kelly that Rocco had probably been made to wear that harness since he was a puppy. They told her that since he grew up wearing it, it must have forged with his skin. Obviously, Kelly was infuriated and proceeded on to calling the person who had sold him to her.
