Animal Aid Unlimited saved Winnie, a street dog whose face was swollen (almost double in size) due to a wire wrapped around his neck in place of a collar. The wire was slowlly strangling the dog to death and cut into the pet’s neck getting embedded. If it wasn’t for his rescuers, Winnie could have agonized weeks if not days before dying from infection.

It took seven days for the swelling to go down, but it took 38 days for Winnie to heal completely. Watch this video and see Winnie’s amazing recovery.
