They eventually found him in a fruit box, cold, hungry, and seemingly defeated. His tail wagged at the sight of his rescuers, and he was brought back to Cacela Dog Haven to be warmed and fed. The next day, in severe pain, Pedro was rushed to the vet, where he was diagnosed with Rickets caused by a severe calcium deficiency, leaving his front legs deformed. He also had a small pelvic fracture, a stomach blockage, and a pancreatic condition revealed by blood tests. Following surgery, recovery, and daily medication, Pedro now lives happily with Treve and Sharron, soaking up cuddles and attention with the “waggiest” tail ever. The shiny patch on his forehead is due to sun damage from being left without shade, but now, with sunblock, he enjoys safe sunshine alongside Sharron and the volunteers. Due to his age and multiple medical conditions, Pedro will spend his retirement as an “Honoured Resident” with Sharron and Treve.
