It’s a harsh reality that people often play significant roles in the lives of animals, and while we have the choice to remain involved or not, helpless animals like Alberto do not. It’s disheartening that some individuals can mistreat or abandon animals. Yet, it’s equally heartening to know there are those who would do everything in their power to save a precious creature, like the endearing dog in this story. Discovering a small puppy like Alberto abandoned in a box, betrayed by those he trusted most, is a profoundly sad sight for any compassionate person.
Alberto, a brave little dog, endured the tough reality of living in a box in the middle of nowhere, suffering from a worm in his eye, likely a key reason for his abandonment.

Thankfully, a group of benevolent individuals from Paticasporayudar, including a kind woman featured in the Paws Show’s video, discovered and promptly cared for him. The woman was deeply moved by Alberto’s plight and distressed by his abandonment at such a critical time:
Her plea for assistance while holding Alberto in the cardboard box was heart-wrenching. Yet, it was uplifting to see the subsequent part of the video, showcasing Alberto’s recuperation. With the support of these compassionate people, Alberto’s bleak situation transformed into one of hope.

Besides being undernourished and in poor health overall, Alberto faced another challenge – eye worms. This infection, typically caused by flies that feed on dogs’ tears and lay eggs in their eyes, had affected Alberto. Fortunately, a veterinarian performed surgery to remove the maggots, saving him from potential blindness.
The dedicated team at Paticasporayudar went above and beyond to ensure Alberto’s safety and health. Their elation when he opened his eyes and began eating was immense, understandable given his charm.
Today, Alberto’s playful spirit and positive energy are a testament to his resilience. His joy in the company of his rescuers and canine companions, frolicking and snuggling, is evident. According to his rescuer, he may have even found his forever human.

All of this was made possible by the generous hearts at Paticasporayudar.
