While the markers seem crude and demeaning, a more serious issue is that the dog was dumped outside and exposed at the beginning of summer. Sarah says that many abandoned dogs do not survive being left on their own.

The resilience of animals in the face of such adversity is remarkable, and with proper care, support, and love, they can often recover and lead fulfilling lives. Their stories can serve as a reminder of the importance of compassion and empathy towards animals and the need for continued efforts to combat animal cruelty.

By supporting animal welfare organizations, adopting from shelters, and reporting cases of animal abuse or neglect, we can contribute to a world where animals are treated with the care, respect, and dignity they deserve.
