Wounded Dog’s Care Paid for by Wounded Veteran

WCBD-TV: News, Weather, and Sports for Charleston, SC


When Dara, a 6-month old hound mix, was shot seven times and left for dead, she crawled under a house in Hollywood, SC to lick her wounds.

She was found by authorities and taken to a veterinarian, but the cost of her care was likely to be high.

Enter Vincent Bertolini, a Vietnam Vet who remembers how scary it is to be injured and alone. He donated $1,000 to pay for her care, and was recently introduced to the puppy he helped to save. The video above, from Channel 2 in Charleston, tells the sweet story.

Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
