Edited to add: My aim with this capture is to elicit a feeling of empathy for the dog - because this is what happens to dumped and abandoned dogs, if not worse. They are lonely, malnourished and frightened. They seek shelter, food and water if and where they can.
Living on the streets is a brutal life for unwanted and abandoned dogs and cats.

For sure. I've alerted the folk who run an NGO for strays, they will fetch him and take him in. So many abandoned dogs and cats, the shelters are completely inundated - but somehow they manage.
A lot of tourists actually adopt these dogs and take them back home with them to Germany, France, Switzerland or wherever.
@cocokinetic How exciting and heartwarming. I'm afraid more rescue dogs here get euthanized rather than adopted. It's so sad, but it's the irresponsible people who abandon and abuse them that are to blame. I love my boy and would never ever abandon or mistreat him. He goes back to the eye vet this week.

Absolutely. It’s heartbreaking. He was fetched by the NGO soon after, I waited with him until I knew he was in good hands. Alas, many dogs do not have this opportunity, they are not in the right place at the right time, and continue to live a wretched life. Shame, it’s just shocking. We do what we can, but we can't save them all.
