A crippled puppy named Tintin was heartlessly abandoned twice in one day by his owners in Sao Leopoldo, a city in southern Brazil.
Security cameras captured a woman throwing him out of a car, showing how badly this dog was treated by his previous owners. In the video, a white car is seen pulling over, and two dogs are let out. The woman is then seen coaxing a black dog back into the car while forcibly pushing the disabled Tintin away.
Tintin, who was born with a missing front leg and a disability in the other, was left limping after the car as it drove away.
The second heartbreak
Sadly, that wasn’t all… After she pushed Tintin out of the car, causing him to fall, her husband later found Tintin wandering the streets. He took him to an Animal Protection office, pretending he found the dog alone. What the staff didn’t know then was that he was actually Tintin’s real owner.
The distressing video of this abandonment was shared on Facebook, where it quickly garnered 220,000 views and hundreds of comments from outraged viewers.
A helping hand
Thankfully, Tintin ended up in the right hands. The team from the Secretariat of Animal Protection in São Leopoldo, Brazil, took immediate action. Tintin wasn’t just cruelly abandoned and neglected by his owners – he was also a disabled dog who couldn’t use his front legs.
Despite his tragic experience, there is a silver lining—more than 30 compassionate individuals have offered to give Tintin the loving home he deserves.
The Secretariat of Animal Protection in São Leopoldo, Brazil, took his case seriously.
