We found Karl forgotten in a pound. His conditions told us a story of neglect and huge suffering. Karl spent 6 years in that enclosure before being rescued last week. He is now 9. Our vet found he had several tumours ulcerated and removed the biggest lump on his abdomen. When I saw him I wanted to cry… I feel very sad for the life wasted, but hopeful for the life that has just started.

Welcome to SOS beautiful boy! We will do everything we can to make you better, feel better at least and let you live the time you have left, loved and cared for.

Please help us support this poor doggie. It will not be easy but we will do everything we can to make him better.

You can make a difference by donating today to SOS Italian Setters. SOS Italian Setters rescue dogs from the highways and byways of Southern Italy, from public pounds with thousands of dogs incarcerated in small enclosures, and directly from hunters who don’t want them anymore. We help them recover with excellent veterinary care and begin a new life in a home where they will be cherished.
