Dog left in the woods with a fractured leg is now in excellent care and recovering.

A dog that has been abandoned is always terrible to see. Recently, an 8-month-old puppy was discovered in the woods by himself, abandoned with all of his belongings, and waiting for someone to come and give him some love.

Good goodness, a rescue took in the sad puppy, who is now seeking for a new home and is in excellent hands.

The dog, now known as Hank, was discovered in the woods by a kind person. He was seated quietly and surrounded by several of his previous playthings, a dog bed, and some food. It was obvious that he had been left behind.


Hank was also discovered with a fractured leg that had been damaged for at least two weeks, according to a Facebook post.

He was underweight and had spent two weeks in the woods by himself.


Hank was adopted by Humans and Animals United, a nonprofit animal rescue group with offices in Florida, who also helped him get ready for surgery to repair his fractured leg.

Hank is happy and the staff adores him, according to a Facebook post from Humans and Animals United.


After going through so much, Hank was obviously glad to finally be safe.

“After he realized he was being carried to the veterinary facility, his tail began to wag. We are at a loss as to why someone would abandon him while he has a fractured leg,” they stated.


Luckily, Hank’s situation is improving despite all of the heartache he has experienced throughout his life.

Humans and Animals United’s Rosa Fond told The Dodo that Hank has received a flood of adoption inquiries. He still has to heal a bit, but he will soon have a place to call home.

Until he is really adoptable, “he’s going to have a little bit of a journey to go through,” she told The Dodo. “But now that he’s protected, he won’t ever, ever be hurt again.”


The suffering this dog through is awful, but Hank is now in good care, is making progress toward recovery, and hopefully will find a wonderful new home very soon.
