A Shar Pei puppy named Tally, who was eight-months-old at the time, was found chained to a tree stump by thugs in a town outside Bucharest, Romania.
Tally’s front paws were chopped off by the cruel thugs and she was not able to stand or walk.

Tally, who was rescued and brought to the UK by charity Shar Pei Rescue Scotland, now lives a happy life with her foster family in Ayr, South Ayrshire.
Retiree Gina McCallum, from East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire, who founded the charity Shar Pei Rescue Scotland, said: “We rescue a lot of dogs from Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, and Spain.point 368 |
When she was found, her tail just started wagging – someone had chopped her feet off but she still wanted to be around humans.point 105 | ”point 108 | 1
Tally’s new owners are planning to raise funds for a set of prosthetics which costs an estimated £10,000. The prosthetics will change her life and she will be able to live a normal life like any other dog.
Despite losing her paws, Tally is now enjoying her life with her new family and loves to walk, jump and play.
Tally’s foster mother, Karen Harvey, said: “Tally is around 15 months old, that’s why we want to get prosthetics for her – because she’s young. I have got pictures of her chained to a tree with no front legs.”
“She can get about in the front and back garden, by pushing herself about, and she can jump up on the couch.”
Karen says the imbalance is putting pressure on her spine and her hips and she will end up getting arthritis due to this.
“We are fundraising to get her some wheels to take the weight off, but it will be about £10,000 for prosthetics. It will improve her quality of life.”
We hope and pray for Tally’s better future.
