Severely Malnourished and Dehydrated, Finn Is Fighting to Stay Alive

When kind strangers found little Finn wandering alone, they knew he wouldn’t survive much longer on his own. They brought him to our rescue gate — a trembling, fragile ball of fur who looked more like a stuffed toy than a real puppy.

Underneath that fluffy coat, Finn was severely dehydrated and malnourished. His tiny heart pounded with fear, and he was so stressed that he couldn’t even bring himself to drink water. We had to gently coax him, drop by drop, to help him stay alive.

No one knows how long Finn struggled on the streets — hungry, scared, and completely alone. What we do know is that he finally has a chance. With urgent veterinary care, proper nutrition, and time to heal, this terrified little soul can learn to trust again.

Please donate today to help Finn recover and feel safe in the world again. Every gift — big or small — helps us give him the love and care he’s been missing for far too long.

Update 11/4/25

Sweet little Finn continues to fight for his life, and we’re doing everything we can to help him pull through. When he was rescued, we knew he was in bad shape — but we’ve since learned just how serious his condition really is. Finn is extremely anemic after being covered in fleas that drained much of his tiny body’s blood. On top of that, our vet discovered a critical liver condition that requires intensive treatment and monitoring. He’s also severely malnourished, likely from trying to survive on scraps and never being properly weaned from his mother.

Despite everything, Finn is holding on. He’s receiving fluids, specialized nutrition, and around-the-clock care from our team and his veterinarians. We’re taking things hour by hour, giving him every chance possible to recover.

Please keep this little one in your thoughts as we continue to fight alongside him. Every bit of love and support truly matters right now.
