CHANCE RESCUED FROM HELL

I remember every day from there.... I remember because I still have the wounds..all over my body....I fought hard to survive, I fought for my life.., but i cant remember anything before the hell. Who I am? I dont know, I had no name, no home, nothing...I was taken from streets by some men with iron bats and dumped in a cage ...I tried to be tough, no tears , no weakness, just surviving...after some time, they "rescued" me and took me in a "shelter" (Fundulea)and the hell began. I dont know how long I was there, I lost count of days...was no light, just dark , howls, pups crying, water very rare, food very rare...I was always in guard, keep my senses awake, no sleep, just prepared to fight anytime...I was attacked many times, I win most of the times, but...in the end..I lost hope and I gave up !! For what to fight? I cant see any light , any hope ....

I felt two hands, I thought this is the end...i didnt move, no use...

Voices..someone told me : You go home, lucky boy...Homeeee??????? Me???????? I didnt believe it , I lost my hope long time ago...

Those arms hold me tight and took me to the car ...sunnnnnn, I see the sun !! I start to move, slow, with fear, looking around, sniffing anything...

We left the hell behind , WE LEFT IT , can you believe it? I still not believe!! I arrived in a yard, I got food, fresh water , a lovely lady put her hand on my head ....Do I know this? Petting? No, I dont but feels good !!

I stayed there 3 days and she came to take me !! I was terrified...this new lady will take me back? I was bad? Noo, please, I will be good, dont take me there , pleaseeeeeee.

She has a nice voice, warm, she trusted me from the first second, no fear, I felt her....but I cant trust her....

We start the journey....I was in the back of the car, feeling bad, scared, looking on the window with fear, the road is familiar, is the road who goes there, in hell , noooooooo.

She saw me , she stopped the car and spoke with me, trying to calm me, but I dont trust her...

We arrived there...thats it, she will bring me back I was thinking...I will not fight anymore, I will let the first strong dog to kill me, I cant endure , no more, I sat down and start vomiting ....

She came back, she didnt let me there, she said to me: Chance, I didnt find Tor, we go home...

She told me the story ...She saw some pictures from the hell I lived and she saw an old shepherd , she wanted to save him!! He had no chance to survive there and she wanted him!! The people who run now the shelter made a mistake and gave me instead !! She, my mum, didnt want to give up on me so, she took me too and come back to the shelter to find the oldie !! She didnt find him.

We went home!! I have a name now, Chance !! Before we start the travel, she stopped the car far from the shelter and took me in her arms , we stayed together on the back seat, I felt her love , I think its love ..I dont know this feeling ...

After a good chicken sandwich and a bowl of water , I fell asleep , deep, relaxed!! I don't dare to be happy , but I feel such joy in my heart !! We arrive home, dad was walking me, he seems a good guy and mum fed me again, I have a nice bed and lots of brothers and sisters !! I'm praying for the others left behind!! Good night!! xxx

We can only imagine the hell he has been too but now he is safe and needs a home where he will get lots of TLC.
