KAWA (Korean Animal Welfare Association) persuaded the old man to hand over the ownership of this puppy who wasn’t even treated properly for his injuries and took him to the hospital for treatment. Click here to see the photos from when KAWA visited the old man’s house with the police to pick him up. He has no broken legs but with abrasions all over the body, it is difficult for him to walk right now. Despite this ordeal, he is a sweet friendly puppy and he has been renamed as “Wang-gu”.
