A 3-year-old injured street dog named Spud, rescued in Tijuana, is getting global support for life-saving surgery.
A 3-year-old street dog named Spud was found severely injured in Tijuana after being struck in the face with a metal pipe, suffering nasal damage, broken teeth, and breathing difficulties.
Rescued by San Diego foster advocate Alyssa, Spud’s gentle nature and distinctive purring-like breathing won global support, prompting widespread donations for his reconstructive surgery.
Originally planned in Tijuana to save costs, the procedure may now require relocation to San Diego due to the need for a surgeon experienced in nasal reconstruction.
Spud’s recovery continues as his story highlights the challenges faced by stray dogs and the impact of community-driven rescue efforts.
Alyssa is also launching Sacred Paws Dog Sanctuary to provide long-term care for other rescued animals.
