Dog Was Thrown Out In Extreme Temperatures For Being “Old and Useless”

Nate Ohlman, a postal worker, is aware that delivering mail in really cold weather is a necessary aspect of his job. On a particular cold morning, which to him seemed like any other, he was driving when he observed something odd on the road.

It’s a senior dog that was trying to get warm in a ditch, his heart broke when he saw the poor animal struggling to get warm, and Nate knew he had to help him.

To avoid frightening the dog, he began to approach gently. As he drew nearer, he realized the dog was elderly and had poor hearing and vision. Nate started to make loud noises to get his attention, when the dog finally noticed him ran towards his mail truck.

Nate put the dog on his truck and noticed he had frostbite and was really skinny, the dog that got named Sloan later sensed Nate was a good guy, so he stayed put on the truck until they reached a vet.

When he dropped Sloan at the clinic Nate gave the staff his number and asked to be called if they need anything, and then he went to work. Nate got back to his day but Sloan was on his mind all the time, he wondered who was so cruel to abandon a sweet dog like that, he was so sad just thinking what the poor canine had to go through.

Thinking this Nate made a decision, he felt the dog needs a loving home and there was a reason that they meet so he decided to adopt cute Sloan, Nate knew Sloan was in a terrible state and he kept praying the dog will make it.

Hearing about Sloan condition KC Pet Project decided to step in, they helped the staff and reassured Sloan gets the right regime and then sent him in a foster home that is experienced with senior dogs.

Sloan was around 12 years old when he was found. He has a hard time when he went into a foster home at first, but everyone could see Sloan was trying his best to live.

As time passed Sloan got better, and from an exhausted, defeated and withdrawn dog he became a goofy, playful happy one.
