Shivering Puppy Clings To Life In A Towel – Before Hypothermia Hits, A Gentle Hand

Some abandoned animals have angels watching over them.

They don’t know it but at the very last moment, when it seems all hope is lost, that animal’s angel arrives out of nowhere … and saves its life.

That’s exactly what happened with Tiny, an adorable little chihuahua that was probably only minutes away from freezing to death.

He was abandoned in a dark, dirty towel in a park in London, and temperatures were falling fast. This is where Tiny needed a miracle!

Unbelievably enough, a Good Samaritan spotted the towel because it actually appeared to be moving…

And on closer inspection, out popped Tiny, shivering and terrified!

The kind-hearted person knew the pup didn’t have much time, so this compassionate individual rushed him to Mayhew, a local animal shelter.

Said Mayhew animal welfare officer AJ Ford:

Poor Tiny was wrapped up in a towel and looked terrified. He was seen by our experienced vet team straight away.

Tiny needed all the help he could get, too! The poor pup had both worms and fleas in addition to borderline hypothermia, so the vets set right to work.

But as the minutes ticked away and Tiny began to recover, the staff breathed a sigh of relief: despite some hydration issues, it seemed Tiny was out of the woods!

Said Mayhew veterinarian Emily Richardson:

When Tiny first arrived he was dehydrated and very nervous.

We monitored him throughout the night, but thankfully he had no health problems that were of concern.

But wait, the story gets even better…

One of Mayhew’s staff members – the receptionist, Melissa – fell in love with Tiny. She absolutely couldn’t let him go, and decided she just had to adopt him.

Tiny is such a gorgeous boy and I fell in love with him instantly.

What he may lack in size, he certainly makes up for in character and has had us all laughing with his antics from the moment we brought him home.

Melissa added that Tiny “adores cuddles and loves nothing more than curling up with you for a snooze.”

That makes sense, considering the little pup is probably soaking up all the love and attention he can get!

And all because of the nameless angel who found him, shivering to death in a towel. Such angels really do exist! 🙂
