Gordo, a 9-month-old English bulldog, burned very seriously by his mistress using a hairdryer. She is being prosecuted for cruelty to an animal.

The puppy suffered repeated violence from his owner: he had already had to be operated on for a broken hip following violence when he was only 3 months old. The APA is looking for a foster family to welcome the young dog when he leaves the veterinarian. The dog will have lifelong aftereffects, but he is an adorable dog who holds no resentment towards humans.
