Despite his age, Maru greeted his rescuers with a sweet smile and wagging tail, showing how happy he was to finally have people around.

@we.a.c.t shared an update about Maru, a rescued dog who was picked up and taken to a shelter. Despite feeling nervous during the car ride, Maru’s doubts disappeared once he arrived at the rescue facility and was given a delicious meal that he quickly devoured.

Although Maru appeared to have a thick fur coat, he was actually extremely hungry and emaciated. The tangled fur hanging on his body made him look overweight, resembling a layered armor, as described by WEACT.

After his arrival, Maru underwent a grooming session, revealing the true extent of his neglected state. This heartbreaking transformation was captured in a photo shared by @we.a.c.t, showing the shaved fur from the grooming session.

After a decade of neglect, Maru emerged from his ordeal looking like a tiny pup. He was severely underweight, needing to gain at least fifteen pounds to reach a healthier state. Traces of his difficult past were evident through scars and missing teeth, worsened by a diagnosis of stage-2 heartworms.

Despite his challenges, Maru showed an abundance of love and affection, grateful to have escaped the confines of his previous inadequate living conditions. The image of the shaved dog sleeping peacefully serves as a heartwarming reminder of his road to recovery.
