It took months for them to recover, but look at them now! And wait until you read what the latest update about Oscar!
Two dogs on the brink of d.e.a.t.h began their journey to a new life when Trio Animal Foundation received a call from the Chicago Police Department.
The police had just rescued two s.t.a.r.v.i.n.g dogs from an abandoned building and the dogs needed help urgently.
The rescue rushed to pick up the two dogs, who they named Emmy and Oscar. Both dogs were anemic and dangerously dehydrated and malnourished.
They were both in โs.t.a.r.v.a.t.i.o.n modeโ and would need to be nurtured slowly back to health.

As Emmy got better, she would walk around the vet clinic looking for Anthony.

โOscar is good in his crate, walks nicely on leash, is awesome in the car, knows all his basic commands and LOVES to play. He is pretty lazy, as most Bulldogs are, and sleeps a lot.โ
A few months into Oscarโs rehabilitation, he got an adoption application from Tyson and his family. Tyson is an experienced dog owner with โplenty of dog knowledge, and he also had an American Bulldog female named Aspen,โ Trio Foundation wrote on their website. They arranged for a home visit and for Tyson to meet Tysonโs family, including Aspen. Tyson immediately bonded with the family and loved meeting Aspen. Needless to say, it worked out.
โIt didnโt take long to realize that Oscar had found his new people, a family who would keep up with his training while providing a loving, safe and fun home that our brave pup so deserved,โ his rescuers write.
Itโs so heartwarming to see how far Emmy and Oscar have come. From being on the brink of d.e.a.t.h, these two dogs are now happy and filled with the promise of love. Share this touching rescue with your family and friends!
