I just saw this on the BBC breakfast programme, it's a heartwarming story after this poor dog's legs were deliberately cut off as a punishment for chewing his owner's shoes.

Amazing story. But oh, how heartbreaking to think about what that poor dog went through in his previous life.

I believe he was only an 8 month puppy at the time. ( I was sort of listening while making myself a bacon sandwich )

What was done to the poor creature is beyond belief. If I could have got my hands on the person who did it, he woudn't have needed to worry about his precious shoes again.

It is so heart breaking what people do to animals all over the world...including here...
What lovely people to of found this poor dog and to have given him a wonderful new lease of life. As well as the many others they've helped.

Wow, what total scum the person is who did that, I wish nothing but bad luck on them. I'm grateful for people like this who go above and beyond to help a fellow resident of our planet
