Hunters like to leave traps and snares out since they’re an easy way to remotely catch and kill an animal, but unfortunately, innocent animals like one unlucky puppy often end up getting caught.

“He was probably out there for quite some time based on how thin he was,” Youngs said. Luckily, someone happened to find the injured and starving pup and alerted rescuers who were able to get him to a doctor. “It took a bit of routing to get him here, a few plane delays and things like that but he made it and he ended up having to have surgery immediately due to the severe condition of his leg,” Youngs added.

Because of how badly injured and infected the puppy’s leg had become, Youngs had no choice but to amputate the leg. Despite the traumatic injury, Fleece has made an incredible recovery and hasn’t lost his happy spirit. “He will continue to do just fine on just three legs as we can see already. He is such a happy guy and can get around just fine so it’s really not going to slow him down in anyway,” Youngs said. “Now he gets a second chance at life because he will go into our adoption program and he will find his forever home.”
