Echo Lake Park in Fort Worth, Texas, is an infamous dumping ground for unwanted dogs. Judy Obregon has saved her fair share of pups from there, but has also come across many heart-wrenching scenes.
This week, she spotted a dog lying there who appeared lifeless. She approached him and assumed that he was just another dead dog, a sight that is very common for her. But when she got closer, she saw him take a breath. Fortunately, this poor stray dog was still alive. Obregon rushed him to the local veterinary hospital to save his life.
Obregon, whos known as the dog lady, runs a rescue organization named The Abandoned Ones, that gives surviving discarded dogs another chance at life. Many of these dogs dumped at Echo Lake Park was once used as bait dogs in dogfighting rings, and all have just been left there to die.

who understands even a single word of canine language.
