very hard not to snuggle him too tight – purely out of fear of breaking his bones. Left for much longer in those conditions, Baby Dex would not have made it. And thanks to the rain, and his teeny-tiny size, the chances of a passerby spotting him was slim. But luckily, this wee little thing was spotted – and quickly rushed to the ER where rescuers were anxiously waiting. Doctors quickly administered IV fluids, pain medication, and antibiotics, but as of right now Baby Dex remains extremely weak and is still not eating.
We are really praying for this precious little guy. He will remain in the ER until more is known about his condition. Baby Dex has been dealt an incredibly awful deck of cards, and his life has been filled with undeniable hardships. But through it all, rescuers tell us that he still manages to give hints of a tail wag – and has even managed to respond to rescuers' soft snuggles and pets!
Please pray for Baby Dex, and if you can, please consider donating to his ongoing medical care. We will update everyone as soon as more is known about this precious boy's condition. Thank you for your kindness and support.

When a Good Samaritan first stumbled upon (and almost over) this camouflaged little angel, his heart just about shattered.
Baby Dex was found shivering and shaking on the side of the road, utterly drenched from the pouring rain. The severity of his neglect was astonishing; despite only being MONTHS old, Baby Dex hardly has the strength to hold up his head. Fleas are ravaging his poor little body; there are dozens flying off him at a time. He's skin and bones, so fragile that rescuers' are trying very hard not to snuggle him too tight – purely out of fear of breaking his bones.
