This Homeless Puppy Was Shot Dozens Of Times In Head, But She Kept Fighting For Her Life

A stray puppy wandering on the side of the road just outside Beirut, Lebanon, recently caught the attention of Amal Andari as she and a friend drove by. Though they only meant to give her some water, when they discovered a gaping wound on her head, they knew she needed more serious help – and fast.
After rushing the small, ailing dog to a nearby vet, X-ray scans revealed that the poor thing had been shot dozens of times with a pellet gun, most likely by local teenagers looking for ‘fun,’ and that she was infected with parvovirus. Andari, a volunteer for welfare organisation Animals Lebanon, told The Dodo that it’s a disturbingly common occurrence in her country, along with poisonings of homeless dogs.
Though the tormented puppy, now named Bondok, was left hurt and blinded as the result of her attack, she remained determined to live. Beating the 25% chance of survival she had initially been given, Bondok is now well on the mend, and is ready to find her special forever home – in, or outside of Lebanon. If you’d like to adopt Bondok, or if you’re able to help pay for her care, reach out to Animals Lebanon now.

I would love to find the people that did this, hold them down and shoot them dozens of times so they can see how it feels. What a lovely little dog. The person that saved her is the kind of people we want in the world.
I know this angers you very much but let's not sink to these morons level. A nice long jail sentence would suffice.
I understand your desire to be better than them Mark but I'm with Jade. Filth like that deserve nothing but the same torture they forced this sweet little baby to endure. Including the being left to die on the streets part.
I understand what Mark says, but I'm with Jade, too. Something has to be done. And that something is not just jail. They have to suffer, too. Thinking about the thoughts of that puppy or other abused animals or people is killing me. Just jail is too good for bad people...
These people aren't worth keeping alive in a jail cell. Turn them into dog food and they can make amends for what they have done.
Mark I agree and as soon as we live in a world where it is possible to send people that do such things to jail for a nice long time what you say is exactly right. Until that day comes though I think we should do just what Jade says.
very true. but I can dream :/
A nice long jail sentence and with pellet gun shooting in the head every morning to wake them up.
If these individuals were sent to jail instead of getting held down and shot multiple times as suggested...I'm fairly sure they would not do well after their crimes were found out. Actually, I think they might prefer getting shot with a pellet gun.
It's funny how many people think that increasing suffering in the world will actually lead to a decrease of suffering on a whole.

I understand what you re trying to say Lana, but i will still fap tonight
Shoot them? How about bash their ugly faces in with a hammer.
I like you. I like you very much.
I have a cousin that used to shoot at pigeons with a pellet gun, when he was only 10. He was bounded to grow up a psycho. Seriously, when he was just 4, you could say he was going to be a misbehaving kids, but as soon as he reached 10, you could see something was not normal in his eyes... This got confirmed when he hit his cousin in the stomach while she was pregnant or when he threatened his own mother with a knife. Glad he's out of the family now.
I'll help shoot them. Those cold blooded morons.
I hate half of the teenager population -.-
You probably wouldn't, if you knew that that "half" is just a loud minority. Most teenagers would never hurt a little puppy just for 'fun'.
You have to be really disturbed to shoot a harmless dog, and we are in real trouble if people use guns for entertainment..
Well.. using guns as entertainment is not new!!!!! the safaris for exemple, killing gorgeous animals for fun! Just BULLSHIT !
To the person below asking about safaris - no, animals are not bred for being hunted and shot. Safaris are trips to Africa, taken traditionally by rich Anglo-Europeans, during which they try to kill a certain number and kind of African animal. On more modern safaris, people often "shoot" their prey only with a camera - but killing them continues to be a major activity of rich white folks. You are probably thinking of a "hunting preserve," wherein a large area is fenced off for the hunting amusement of rich white people. The animals are not "bred" for it - they reproduce naturally. That they are fenced in for the purpose of being shot like at a carnival does not make them any different than the situation described by Lo Reine. They are still "gorgeous animals," and they are still being "killed for fun."

I would like to ask, what do you mean by "safaris"? If that is what I think it is then the whole situation is controlled and the animals are pretty much bred for that. Not that it is any better but it is certainly different than the situation you seem to describe.
Apparently you've never been to Lebanon or West Virginia.
Welcome to America. Well, at least the republican part
Oops, forgot this happened somewhere else. Sorry!
What is so depressing is that many people don't understand that nurturing this lack of empathy, especially in young boys, creates vile societies. If we are so cruel towards creatures that are weaker than us we become despicable human beings and cannot possibly form a civilized society.
