A Pit Bull, Purposely Dumped In A Sewer Drain, Is Saved By Two Awesome Kids




http://blog.theanimalrescuesite.com/saving-mars/?

Two boys were walking around outside when they came across a board that was resting on top of a sewer drain. They lifted it and were shocked to see the sweetest little face staring up at them. Mars, an emaciated Pit Bull, needed help right away. The two boys got their dad and called animal control. It was certainly a team effort to get Mars out of that deep drain. Now, Mars is safe and in the process of putting on weight. This little fighter will certainly go to a beautiful forever home. He certainly deserves it!

man who somewhat restores my faith in humanity. I'm so glad that Mars is doing well & that the young man will get a rescue pup of his own to love.

Great story, but so sad it had to air n the first place.

I don't care for dogs much, but I hate people that can do such a thing to animals. And good on that kid- his parents did well.
