Smoke, a Pit Bull puppy from Portsmouth, Virginia, was subjected to a brutal act of violence at a tender age of under a year. The puppy’s former owner inflicted seven stab wounds on the animal in a fit of rage.
However, Smoke managed to escape the attacker and found refuge under a nearby landscaping truck, where she was eventually discovered by the driver, Brad Chambers.
Check out the rest of the story below:
“When I looked under the car, it looked like a sweet puppy,” Chambers told WTKR. But when Chambers picked up the puppy, he was 𝕤Һoᴄҡed to find her profusely bleeding from the neck.
Fortunately, Chambers isn’t just a Good Samaritan and animal lover. He’s also a former cop with a trauma kit in his vehicle.
According to Chambers, the driver who discovered Smoke, the puppy was in a critical state with visible puncture wounds and a significant loss of blood. Chambers immediately took action by administering first aid and rushing the injured animal to a nearby veterinary hospital. His prompt action played a crucial role in saving Smoke’s life.
Smoke underwent multiple surgeries at a veterinary hospital in North Carolina, with the cost of the surgeries being covered through fundraising efforts, including a personal contribution from Chambers. The puppy’s former owner has since been charged with animal cruelty in connection with the incident.
