In 2012, when Trooper was a puppy, he was tied to the bumper of a pickup truck and dragged down a highway for over a mile. Witnesses called the police and the Humane Society’s Animal Cruelty Task Force rescued Trooper. His injuries were horrific with skin torn to the muscle and multiple broken bones.

Teams of Humane Society doctors tended to his injuries, but Trooper’s odds of survival were low. He needed multiple surgeries over the course of several months. He had to learn how to walk again. He had to learn how to trust again.

As he continued to heal and grow, the Humane Society never gave up on him, providing shelter, training, patience, and comfort to him for over a year. 

This is but one of countless stories of animals getting a second chance thanks to donors like you who make it possible for us to continue our lifesaving work 365 days a year.
