Puppy is abandoned in the middle of nowhere in a suitcase, but he didn’t stop fighting
The Lega Del Cane Trani rescue squad came upon one of the most heartbreaking situations in the recent year. A guy was travelling between Trani and Barletta in Italy when he noticed something peculiar.
A puppy was just inches away from a broken suitcase on the side of the road. The way the suitcase had been ripped reflected the awful predicament in which this furry companion had found himself.

Outbreaks of tornadoes leveled entire neighborhoods.
Flooding trapped people in their homes.
Wildfires burned out of control.
When people go missing during these catastrophes, it’s a race against time to find them alive – or their remains.
