The somber portrayal of this emaciated Pit Bull, found in neglect, sparked a call to the NGO SOS 4 Paws in Curitiba-Pr.
They quickly reached out to officer Guilherme Dias, Chief of the Environmental Protection Police Station, who coordinated a rescue mission.
Upon arrival, the scene was more dismal than expected.
The pair of dogs were huddled together; the frightened Pit Bull refused to meet gazes and cowered behind her sibling.
She appeared cornered and despondent, her skin marred.
