The image before you captures a moment of profound despair—a skeletal Great Dane, all ribs and haunted eyes, huddled on a desolate rooftop. This is Angelo, a creature so ravaged by starvation that he resorted to consuming rocks in a desperate attempt to survive.

His story, however, is not one of endless tragedy, but a testament to resilience, the power of collective compassion, and a series of unexpected twists that ultimately led him to a loving home and a second chance at life. This is the tale of Angelo, a dog whose remarkable journey touched hearts across continents and redefined what it means to be rescued.

His discovery was a stroke of sheer luck, or perhaps fate. A local construction worker, on his way to an early morning shift, heard a faint, pained whimper emanating from a pile of rubble. Curiosity, or more likely, an innate human empathy, compelled him to investigate. What he found chilled him to the bone: a once magnificent Great Dane, now barely recognizable, barely clinging to life. The dog’s eyes, wide and fearful, held a silent plea that transcended language. The worker, a man named Karim, knew instantly that he couldn’t simply walk away.
