Tato – In Foster – Midlands
Tato’s Story
Tato was brought into a loving home as a puppy, where he was cherished by his family. Sadly, when a new baby arrived, they made the incredibly difficult decision to rehome him with someone they believed they could trust. Heartbreakingly, that trust was betrayed.
Tato’s original family began receiving desperate calls asking them to take him back, with horrifying threats that he would either be abandoned to fend for himself on the streets or, even worse, put into a bag with bricks and thrown into a river.
Let that sink in for a moment.
A beautiful, innocent dog whose only fault was trusting the humans around him was facing unimaginable cruelty through absolutely no fault of his own.
We often think we have heard the worst of what can happen to vulnerable dogs, and then another story comes along that leaves us wondering how anyone could be capable of such cruelty.
Tato’s original family simply could not bear the thought of anything happening to him. Although they knew they could not care for him long-term, they opened their home to him once again and put his safety and wellbeing first. For that, we are incredibly grateful.
When we were contacted and asked if we could help Tato and bring him into our care, there was never really a decision to make. How could we say no?
We don’t know what Tato has experienced during his short two years, and if we are honest, we dread to think. We can only imagine the confusion and uncertainty he may have been through, all through no fault of his own.
But one thing we do know is that his story does not have to end in heartbreak.
From this moment forward, Tato will know love, kindness, comfort, safety and stability. He deserves nothing less than the compassion and care every dog should receive.
No more uncertainty. No more fear. No more being let down by the people he depends on.
Just love. Just safety. Just the chance to be happy.
