✨ Meet Toast! This incredible young puppy has faced an unimaginable journey, one that no soul should ever have to endure. He was found abandoned in a park, the victim of severe abuse. With a swollen eye that ultimately needed surgical removal, a broken jaw, and missing teeth due to terrible mistreatment, it's a miracle that this pup still radiates love and hope. ❤️ Toast's story is bittersweet. Under the care of a kind-hearted friend in Iowa, he's now in a safe haven where he can begin to heal. Despite losing over 25% of his body weight during his harrowing days at the shelter, his spirit shines bright! 🌟 Can you believe that through it all, he still seeks out affection from those who care for him? That resilience is what makes Toast truly special. Although he’s currently not at his best, with time, care, and love, Toast is determined to bounce back. He’ll soon be seen by a veterinarian to discuss his recovery and future needs. Let's remember, this special boy will need a forever home filled with understanding and patience, someone who can provide him with soft food for life and lots of cuddles! 🧡 Available for adoption around the end of March or April in Elgin, Toast is waiting for someone magical to swoop in and show him what true compassion looks like. Will you be the person to fill his world with joy? It’s our turn to show this pup that kindness can shine brighter than all the darkness he's faced. 🐾 Apply to adopt Toast through the Buddy App today! 🙌
