Somebody Cut This Puppy’s Mouth Open Like The Joker, But She’s Still Happy to See Humans

There’s a reason why dogs are called a man’s best friend. Unfortunately, many people prove themselves unworthy of such friendship.

A Facebook post has turned up online detailing the tragic case of a six-month-old puppy in Korea that was found by an animal welfare group. Tragically, her mouth was slashed open into a twisted grin like the Joker, the super-villain from Batman. 

According to the post, the scar was either slit with a blade or burned open with flame. The poor animal also had open burns on her legs and infected wounds on her paws, possibly caused by the jagged edges of her smashed toenails, resulting in her staggering with a limp. It seems that her front right leg was broken as well. Poor doggo 🙁

The retriever was found with her mouth tied shut, unable to eat or drink. When the rescuers finally cut away the bindings, they found her mouth filled with scars swelling with infection. Our hearts can’t take this! 

However, despite all the abuse the dog has suffered, her rescuers have noted that she remains friendly and welcoming to humans, even wagging her tail when they called her name. 

The rescuer also penned a heart-wrenching message in Korean. Here’s the brief translation of the passage:

“I am eager to treat you. There are many traces of abuse, here and there. Even though you can heal through your injuries and illness, please be strong.”

The dog has since been given treatment, including laser surgery. Her wounds have also been treated and her mangled leg has been bandaged.

Pictures show her sleeping peacefully and she seems to be recovering slowly but surely.

We hope the evil people who did the cruel act get justice. On a side note, it’s quite touching to know that even in the face of such cruelty, the dog is still loving and finds happiness in being around people. This is why dogs are the best!
