His neck was extremely swollen and infected.  We are not sure how long he had been stuck in the barbed wire but it must have been very painful for him.  At least he was eating well.  After a week, he was able to stand for short periods before collapsing. 

Eventually he was stable enough to return to the Sanctuary, and come off his IV.  He clearly has mobility issues that may improve as his strength returns.  One of the most rewarding parts of doing this work is seeing them slowly start to trust and eventually start to play.  It wasn't too long before he developed the stamina to walk around a little, interact, and even play.  That is the transformation that love, safety and good food can so often elicit.  Now he's very friendly and gentle, but likes his own company.  He really needs a home where he feels wanted and needed and gets the attention he really deserves.
