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.

Share on FacebookI 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.
Load More Replies...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 B******T !
Load More Replies...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.
This is really touching, I don't really like dogs nor can afford to have them at the moment being, however, I truly hope somebody can provide her with a nice and loving home.
What kind of selfish, psychotic, criminal do such a thing?? Animals have just as much as a life as we do.
Why do people has to hurt animals? Does this show superiority? That we have a higher position in the food chain? It's very saddening. Animals, like humans, feel love and pain. :(
Sweet bright eyed forgiving puppy! Endured all that horror and still ready to just have somebody to love. Evil is definitely real, but thankfully so is good!
WHY DO PEOPLE DO THIS TYPE OF B******T. IF YOU'RE BORED DONT F***ING SHOOT A DOG IN THE HEAD
Indeed! They should do us a favour and shoot themselves. Sorry to say this - they are not beings at all!!
Load More Replies...What is with these idiot people shooting at defendless puppy? They can shoot cans or among themselves.
My mom has fostered 150 dogs over the years and many of them came to the shelters full of buckshot. I don't get it and it makes the doggos really skiddish around people therefore really hard to adopt out :( It's so sad...
wow... human miserable behavior keeps surprising me day after day...
I wish I had the means to take this dog to live with me but I am in a difficult situation right now. I really hope she meets the nicest people possible. We, as people, owe her a huge apology. I also don't want the people who hurt her to live in the same world as my child. They are useless to society. No, not useless actually, they are a burden. Vermin. They deserve the life that's coming to them.
Why do people do this kind of thing for fun? I know people get bent out of shape when you say the type of things I'm about to say, but I don't really care. The people that do this kind of thing should really be eradicaded, like wiped out, we do not need their genes spreading.
My heart broken... This make me hurt... Human, you are a superior. But you are not supposed to be hurt everything. Your superiority is to protect the other. I wish weshould be the better person. And i believe little good thing is matter.
There are only two types of people who do this: those with certain mental diseases, and those who are deeply hurting inside themselves. Jailtime or torture will cure neither. It's easy to say: I'd never do this, so the person who does this must be inherently evil, perhaps not a person at all. But yes, they are people, and in the right - or technically wrong - kind of circumstances and set of genetics, each one of us could've ended up like that: a sorry excuse for humanity that feels the need to hurt others to cure the pain inside. Yeah, I'm sure I'll get downvoted for this, but I pity the person who did this. I pity the pup more. But to ignore that people who do this are created by the society we ALL maintain, is lazy and easy.
Both cases of mental and damaged people will escalate to harming children when they get bored of abusing animals.

I hope you catch the idiots who did this and please let me know if this dog needs a loving home
How is it that the two dogs (not related situations) but, again, why is it that I fall in love with two each across the world? From now on, I shall look at location first and read story second if the distance is manageable.
I would torture the f**k out of those little pieces of pure, straight s**t! I would slice them with a sharp, actually a dull knife, for more pain, then rub human feices on their wounds and leave them tied up on the side of a road inb 100 degree weather!!! I hope something really bad happens to someone they dearly love , what goes around comes around!
In older times, people euthanized dogs with problems, why make them suffer? And fought to save human lives to the end. Today, people euthanize people, why make them suffer? And fight to save lives from dogs to the end. Pray for Charlie.
At least with the SPCA, the option of adoption is in play.
