Zeke Was Eating Rocks To Survive

  • April 11, 2017

  • South Africa

Zeke was found confused and scared roaming the streets of Atlantis in Cape Town, South Africa. She had been thrown away like a piece of garbage, left to fend for herself, sick and in pain and EATING ROCKS from hunger.

Unfortunately, this is a frequent occurrence in many of South Africa’s filthy impoverished urban areas. Owners will often dump dogs on the streets when they get sick or show weakness. It’s an easier solution than getting them the help they need.

Luckily, Zeke was found by a good Samaritan and taken to Fallen Angels, our partner organisation in South Africa.

Zeke was in such a bad way immediate expert help was needed. She was rushed to a vet emaciated and full of ticks and diagnosed as starving and with two types of mange.
