Abandonment is one of the cruelest things that can happen to a dog. Overnight, they are left to survive alone, scavenging for scraps and facing dangers they never should have known.
The risk becomes even greater when they end up in areas filled with predators. Instead of a safe home, they are forced to share their surroundings with wild animals, simply trying to make it through another night.
That is exactly what happened to one small dog in California. When rescuers learned he had been left in the middle of coyote territory, they were horrified and knew they had to move fast.
