Tuffy: Boiled alive and thrown
from fourth story balcony!
from fourth story balcony!
As a six-week-old puppy, Tuffy had the shock of his young life – having a pot of boiling water thrown on him for chewing on his former owner's cell phone.
This story is unbelievable. We have partnered with Animals Asia to help save a dog named Tuffy. I know these photos and story are difficult to read and see but together we can help this innocent victim of torture. This is his story.
What happened next would have killed most people. Tuffy was thrown from a fourth-floor balcony, onto concrete. And he would certainly have died had it not been for the "miracles of kindness" that followed.
When 30-year-old designer Yan Yingying saw him lying there, he was on the edge of death. Not thinking twice, she picked him up, determined to help.
Animals Asia Vet Emily Drayton said: "That first act of kindness was that of Ms Yan. She was the one who saw Tuffy lying at the bottom of the apartment building, drenched and scalded. The sight must have been so horrific – and I'm sure many people would have walked past and pretended not to see. But she didn't. She took Tuffy to a local vet in Chengdu and paid for all his veterinary care. That saved his life."
But while Tuffy was kept alive, the local vet's knowledge of how to treat such awful ailments was limited. Through an online veterinary advice service, Ms. Yan found Animals Asia. She drove an hour to bring him to Animals Asia's China sanctuary.
Dr. Drayton states, "When a vet tells you to prepare yourself, you know you're going to be in for a shock. But nothing prepared me for what I was about to see. A tiny naked pup, with a red raw body that looked like a huge blister, looking out at the world with the misery of an animal who couldn't understand why he had been punished with pain."
"We asked ourselves – had he used up all of his energy and everything he had to get this far? Do we have to make a decision for him to end his suffering? What can we do? My colleague and I discussed it, and we both strongly felt he needed a chance."
The second miracle was the extent of his burns. When they cover over 50 per cent of the body, animals are not expected to survive. Tuffy survived with over 60 per cent of his body burned. How his life started was horrific.
Dr. Drayton writes "Time and time again we find that those who are cruel to animals are a tiny minority. Animals have the ability to bring out the best in people, and it's true for Tuffy. His strength and bravery was incredible – but Ms Yan was equally determined he would live.
"Tuffy has more passion for life than any animal, or person, I have ever met. Nothing can keep him down. He is boisterous and full of play. To say Tuffy is a fighter is an understatement."
