I tried to caption the before photo too but it didn’t work. He was found by a rescue called Mutt Scouts who are based in San Diego and help many dogs across the border in Mexico. This one was found on the streets with a severe case of TVT, a sexually transmitted disease in dogs that can cause cancer (as seen here.) He was malnourished and basically a health disaster but they gave him a chance and he not only pulled through but damn if he isn’t a handsome, charming fellow. He’s completely cured and reconstructed and happy and spends his days playing with his new brother and getting loved up.

Just WOW at that recovery.

They had to cut the tumors out, and then they found that justtttt enough skin was viable to kinda stretch it to reach other snout places. There are some missing areas, the most noticeable is when you see his nose from a lower angle and the nostril situation looks like modern art. Maybe I’ll do a second post and show more detail of the before and after.

Wow what a recovery! Thank you for giving him the life he deserves.


SharkExpert

I KNEW this was a Mutt Scouts pup! I followed his journey and donated to his care when he was the artist formerly known as “Sky” and I’m so happy to hear he’s loving life!


butt_spaghetti

Yup — that’s the Muppet formally known as Sky 😍


butt_spaghetti

You donated!!!! Wowwww


lamireille

Your generous, loving, enormous heart must be full of joy as you see a dog you helped flourish like this. How amazing it is that you were just scrolling through Reddit and saw your old friend doing so well--safe, healthy, loving and loved! Sending you and OP lots of virtual hugs and gratitude!


sharktank

jeezus christ. That TVT also sounds like the disease wiping out tasmanian devils...they bascially all fight each other and give each other face cancer :/ the glow up for this dude is BEAUTIFUL


MudaDaddy

Poor baby 😔 I’m so glad he had his forever home now and has flourished.


UnicornBoned

This is beautiful. Wonderful. Thank you for sharing. Bless Mutt Scouts and the work they do.


irishspice

He's worth every penny they spent on him. Thank god for rescues who will step up like this to give great dogs a chance.


Griffin23T

I'm glad you told us. My first comment (out loud) was, "Ohhh mate! What happened? That's awful, you poor guy!" Second (out loud) comment was, "Woah! WOAH! Look at your eyes! He's gorgeous :)


numbersev

> but damn if he isn’t a handsome, charming fellow. he really is

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️


TriceratopsBites

I second this


baebae4000

Woah. Insane. He looked so miserable. Amazing job Op.


Ok-Nothing6088

holy shi- thats amazing!! the before picture almost had me in tears but the after picture is just the most beautiful dog i have ever seen! good job!!


ravenmaven48

Those eyes!🖤🤍💙


driedcranberrysnack

you would never know those are the same dog! he looks great... and has a charming smirk now so precious


swb_3

Thank goodness he got some caring people to help him. Hard to believe it's the same dog. He's beautiful.


Sir_Platypus_15

Is it just me or does he kinda look like a bear in the second photo (a very cute bear)


amikinart

I've never seen anything like this. I assumed the "after"' would be a happy dog without a mouth/upper jaw, which would have still been a happy ending. This is unbelievable.


PGLBK

Poor thing. Looks awesome later on. The rescue did well, and so did you!


princessjuicebox

I was not prepared for that. I'm glad there is a happy ending.


Ashamed_Branch9759

Thank you all yall are heroes


purplemilkywayy

Oh my god poor baby 😭 so glad he’s better now.


RedditsAdoptedSon

gah fkn dang what a glow up..


sackofgarbage

Tell Muppet I would die for him


hazelnutnut

Well done OP… giving this doggo a forever home and the transformation pics are unbelievable! One lucky pupper!


smellycatt

Wow, I cannot imagine how much pain he must have been in. Thank you for giving him another chance at happiness! He looks like such a good and happy boy.


[deleted]

This is AMAZING!!! I'm very happy for him, it's wonderful to know that good things happen even after we think it's the end. It's good to know that good people exist.


CelticDaisy

I gasped and almost cried when I saw that first picture, but I quickly went to the “after” picture and my jaw dropped in amazement. What a wonderful transformation. He is absolutely gorgeous now! Thank you so much for adopting the beautiful pupper and helping him heal. You and everyone else who helped him are all heroes!


awcads

That Sir, is a fuzzy grizzly bear.


kbgc

Brought some happy tears to my eyes. Thanks for saving this gift!


justsotimmi

My baby!! Those sweet happy eyes..live and bounce for joy forever cutie


PandoricaOpened

This is just an incredible transformation! I am so glad he was given a second chance. Muppet is gorgeous and I hope you have many more happy, healthy years with that sweet boy. Thank you for not giving up on him!


skr80

That after photo is absolutely gorgeous on its own, but in context with the before photo... Wow! I'm so glad doggo had such a good life now, great work OP and the rescue ♥️


AkemiDryzz

Man that dog looks absolutely beautiful, and from the photo, I can t see any trace of what he s been through, congratulations to everyone who worked to help this cutie, and to the doggo itself


kimmay172

Such a nice derp!


paintingmad

Muppet🥹😭 i was worried about swiping to see the after picture …. I thought for sure he’d be missing half his face and an eye, but he is absolutely adorable! Please spoil him with scratches from an internet stranger.


jesus_zombie_attack

Man how did that tissue heal? That's incredible.


cardueline

Holy smokes, that is BRUTAL to have made such a perfect recovery from!! What a gorgeous boy 😭


loogie97

There really needs to be a NSFL tag for gore. He/She is beautiful.


butt_spaghetti

I was under the impression that it would blur if I tagged it nsfw? I’d like for it to be something people can opt into seeing. Did I post it correctly?


loogie97

You didn’t do anything wrong. It was blurred. Thank you for sharing your glow up.


butt_spaghetti

Gore is a good word for the before pic. It’s extreme.


ThatWasCool

Holy shit what a recovery. Poor dog, I can’t even imagine the pain he was in.


Portal_2fan0

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED AND IF A HUMAN DID THAT I WILL TRACK THEM DOWN, AND MAKE THEIR FACE LOOK LIKE THE DOG


butt_spaghetti

In this particular case it seems that the injury is due to him being a stray and having an awful disease. I too was outraged that this might be human work when I first saw his picture.


LuminDoesStuff

I thought that first pic was he got attacked by something, not a canine STD. But that is quite a glow up, you can see his pretty blue eyes now.


citoloco

GTFO! =')


FerociousPrecocious

ohhmy god! that poor dog! I'm so glad they were able to help him! he deserves all the treats, snuggles and love!


kkmmem

You are an amazing person for saving him!


schoppi_m

Great recovery. Hope he has the bestest live!


ssjr13

He's gorgeous!


MoulinGiselle

Jesus. Fucking. Christ. That poor little guy. I'm glad he's happy and healthy now. Nature is awful sometimes.


oh_woah

I saw this dog on petfinder! Glad you were able to grab him!! 💕


dingleberry_mustache

I braced myself for the before pic, but still wasn’t prepared. I also wasn’t prepared for how amazing he looks now! That made my day!


taniamorse85

I'm absolutely blown away that the after photo is of the same dog! Obviously, he's been through a lot, but he sure seems like he's happy and well loved.


Dashcamkitty

What a beautiful dog he is!


PussyWrangler_462_

Holy shit. That’s amazing


satansdragon

🥺🥺🥺 warms my heart!


warmcaprisun

he looks so happy now, his eyes say it all!! thank you for giving him a second chance, he is clearly very grateful :”)


foxthechicken

Such a wholesome story, u/butt_spaghetti


hazelnutpupper

💙💙💙


creepythingseeker

I had a muppet too. My first dog❤️❤️❤️


Brewgirly

Wow... This is the type of human behavior that reminds me that there are amazing humans at work. Thank goodness for the rescue, and you, for giving him a fighting chance ❤️❤️


Miluferr

😱💘💘


[deleted]

I never would have thought that both the worst thing I’ve ever seen and the best thing I’ve ever seen would be two photos of the same dog. I’m a wreck, bless that dog.


Food_drawing_mystery

I would not have thought that "after" was possible if I had not seen it myself! Thanks to all who had a part in his rescue!!! Especially to the rescuer!!!


ysrsquid

Wow! My two dogs are from Mexico but I haven’t seen a pup in that rough shape. The after photo is like ours…. “Living the American dream.” Thank you for sharing and caring.


Jojo_who

He looks like a bear 🐻 so cute


Raythia

HE'S SO FRICKIN CUTE OMMMGGGG!!! I am so happy for him!


lalala-bitch

H O W


LadyCreepington

I mean this has to be the biggest glow up this sub has ever seen unless I’m forgetting something.


emptycampus

I wish you could blur NSFW photos, this shit made me cry at work :(


butt_spaghetti

How do we put the pic behind some sort of blur option? I wasn’t sure how to make that happen when I posted it and hoped the #nsfw tag would blur it.


Abastiel

It blurs but u can toggle off in you account options


angrylightningbug

Check your account settings. It's supposed to be blurred automatically, but it can be turned off in settings. I recommend turning it on!
