This Abandoned Dog With Dreadlocks Gets Rescued And Receives Lots Of Love

AMAZING VIDEO!

Hope for Paws is at again.

The animal rescue organization, which made waves last year when one of their videos exploded onto the Internet, has continued to find and help animals in need.

Last week, Eldad Hagar, the founder of Hope for Paws, posted another heart-wrenching, but ultimately uplifting, video of a dog he found in Compton, California. When Hagar approached the dog, who according to the video had been abandoned by his previous owners, the poor pup appeared traumatized and all of his fur was matted.

But then, under the care of Hope for Paws, you can see him undergo an amazing transformation -- and receive the name Theo.

I can't stop watching these even though they break my heart. I just wish he didn't at the music to the videos or at least turned it way down.

to fend for himself or die in the streets

Thank dog for the rescuers...

What an adorable doggie Theo is. So glad to see him cleaned up, well fed, loved, happy and safe again.
