Arrow is a puppy that although he is now as happy as his videos and photographs show, his start in life was one of the most difficult and heartbreaking.
Anyone who had seen him in his depressing state when he was just a cub would have doomed him to certain death.
But, he never imagined that destiny would send him some true angels as parents , who would not care about his deformity -shocking for many-, and would love him as he is.
The dog with the dumb tongue and crooked jaw suffered a sad aggression by another dog
Arrow arrived at the gates of the animal rescue organization PMM Rescue Inc. when he was just a baby, in more than unfortunate conditions.
There they discovered that his jaw was terribly broken, consistent with a severe bite he received from another canine . Unfortunately, his lower right jaw was no longer salvageable.
It was so necrotic and severely infected that it smelled like a rotting corpse. So her only option was to remove the dead bone.
The vets had no choice but to remove the entire lower right side of his jaw and cut off part of the upper right side as well.
Dr. Sidhu, from Bakersfield, California, was the hero who performed a delicate, hours-long surgery on Arrow. He wouldn’t leave until he saved her life and devotedly cared for the little puppy.
Although the attack he received would leave irreversible consequences on his face , that did not happen with his personality, totally bright and bubbly since he was little.
After 5 months of the operation, the puppy with a different face was the happiest he could imagine, not only because he recovered wonderfully, but because he found true love with his new family.
His story went viral thanks to a beautiful video that reveals his sad beginning, but above all, the great warrior and creature of light he became thanks to so much love that surrounded him at all times.
Arrow loves to eat, play fetch, learn new tricks, drink water while making the biggest mess…
Although their favorite activities are cuddling, giving slobbery kisses, napping, sleeping a little more in the mornings, and accompanying their parents on long night walks.
But, what he loves most above all things, if one day he succeeds, is waking up next to his human father in his huge bed.
Regardless of his physical defect, and the limitations he may have, his family loves him like this. Since, although he is already 2 years old, Arrow never left behind his puppy personality.
He has always been active and playful at all hours of the day, and he really knows that he is the most loved in his home, he takes advantage of that and “does what he wants”.
“Arrow started out having the worst weeks of his life, fast forwarding to where you see him today, giving us ear-to-ear grins, rag tongue and all, but he loves life and has made our family complete, ” his friend said . owner.
Despite the fact that they are used to having to pick up the hundreds of croquettes that he drops when he eats because of his crooked mouth, chasing him around the house and having to clean everything every time he makes a mess, his owner would not change it for anything. .
The story of the beautiful Arrow is a clear example that physical appearance has nothing to do with the true value of a puppy or a person. In a phrase from The Little Prince, nothing is so true as “What is essential is invisible to the eye!” Don’t you think so?
