Dog Who Was Chained For 8 Years Can’t Believe He’s Getting His Own Bed!
Stevie was rescued from a South Carolina backyard (together with another dog named Wonder), where he had been tied up for much of his eight years of life. He was brought up by the Lancaster County SPCA, which collaborates with other rescue organizations such as Diamonds in the Ruff in New York. When Diamonds in the Ruff learned about Stevie, they realized he had to be a part of their rescue family.
When Stevie initially arrived to Diamonds in the Ruff, it was evident that he had a lot on his plate. Stevie was not only blind, but he also had fleas, worms, and lost fur. They eventually discovered he had an old corn cob caught in his intestines, which required surgery to remove. In addition to dealing with his medical difficulties, his foster family had to be patient with him as he adjusted to life inside with a loving family.
