Meet Callan.

The two-year-old Belgian Malinois was found on the side of the road in Texas in extreme pain unable to move. He had been hit by a car and left to suffer.

He was found lying in a pool of his own blood before being rushed to a local emergency clinic. The poor pup was started on pain medication and the severe flesh wounds were carefully treated.

Shenandoah Shepherd Rescue, rescue based in Virginia who works with Texas shelters to save shepherd dogs from high-kill shelters, answered the plea for help placed by Palm Valley Animal Control.

Callan has a long road of recovery ahead but is expected to recover. To heal, he will need daily wound cleaning and pain management, antibiotics, patient stability monitoring, and laser therapy.
