Caitlyn encountered human evil.
When she was found, her jaws had been taped together so tightly that rescuers weren’t sure if they could save her tongue. It was estimated she’d been taped that way for somewhere betw een 36-48 hours.
A good samaritan contacted the Charleston Animal Society, who immediately came to the rescue. Caitlyn wailed as the tape was removed.
It took several surgeries before Caitlyn’s condition improved. The individual responsible for her assault was reported and prosecuted for his terrible crimes.
But on the upside, Caitlyn is now a public face for the work of the receovery of formerly abused dogs.
Thanks to the “A dog’s best day” organization, she is now a new and happy dog. Only scars circling around her jaws reveal what she’d previously been through.
Watch the video below to see Caitlyn’s new life, filled with balls, toys and dog treats:
