The small dog is named Neymar and according to TeleCinco, the 29-year-old pet owner was sweeping glass when officers arrived at the home. The pet owner told authorities he had just gotten home and found the broken glass and the dog crying. However, a few minutes later he confessed the pet had run away a few weeks back and he had beaten the dog to teach him a lesson.

Officers arrested the man and rushed the dog to a vet clinic where veterinarians discovered the dog had a broken leg and a collapsed lung. The dog was coughing up blood and needed emergency surgery to save his life.

Neymar’s abusive owner surrendered him after he admitted not having funds to cover for the dog’s treatment. The officers who responded to the animal abuse call came together and paid for the dog’s surgery.

After the surgery, one of the officers decided to adopt Neymar, and once he was strong enough, the officer made the adoption official and took the little dog home.

Neymar will never again be abused and he now has a band of police officer brothers looking out for him at all times.

A puppy dumped in a Detroit family’s garbage can and left for dead has been rescued, and now Precious is on the road to living the kind of life she deserves.

The nine-month-old pit bull mix was covered in over 70 bite marks, and has a torn ear and other injuries. A blood trail found near the garbage can leads police to suspect that she may have been abandoned on the street, and believing she was dead, someone may have chucked her in the bin in front of a family’s home.

A member inside the house told WXYZ that they could hear the dog crying inside the can. They were scared to go near the dog, unsure of how she would react to people. They called a local shelter for help, but because it was Sunday, the shelter was closed, so they just left her in the garbage can.

By Monday, Detroit Pit Crew Dog Rescue had heard about the pup’s discovery. Crew members rushed over and plucked the bloodied, freezing from on top of the tras

The team called her Precious.  They believe based on her injuries, she was being used as a bait dog.  But because she was rescued, they consider her one of the lucky ones.  They gave an update of her condition on Facebook:

“She is doing well considering everything she has gone through, and she is HW negative. The vet is doing some blood tests, and they gave her a bath so that they could wash off the dirt and blood and get a better look at her wounds. She will probably need stitches and some good antibiotics as she does have infection from some of the older bite wounds. We will keep everyone updated.”

1. Nicky Nicky Nine Doors Prank
This clearly only works if you have a doggy door and hopefully your dog isn’t entirely too lazy to get up and see who it is. Try it out and see!

2. The Cross Eyed Prank
Use a treat to get their eyes to go wonky for a few seconds. It’s too cute.

3. The Disappointment of a Lifetime Prank
Place a treat on the table that only the bigger of your dogs can reach, and watch the small one struggle. Obviously give him a treat after his attempts and his sheer disappointment.
