Because of this, his bones had developed abnormally.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">He was also extremely underweight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">Weak.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">Hungry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">But what stood out most was his personality.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">Even in his fragile condition, Tomy greeted people with a wagging tail and hopeful eyes.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading ext-animate--on ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\"><strong>Video: From Bent Legs to Running Free \u2014 Tomy and Eva\u2019s Incredible Recovery<\/strong><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler ext-animate--on ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">https:\/\/youtube.com\/watch?v=r04Uqsc2HCM%3Ffeature%3Doembed<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading ext-animate--on ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\"><strong>The First Steps Toward Healing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">Once rescued, Tomy was taken straight to a veterinary clinic.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">The medical team began immediate treatment to stabilize his condition. He received fluids, nutritional support, and medication to treat digestive problems such as vomiting and diarrhea.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">At the time, Tomy weighed only\u00a0<strong>about 3 kilograms<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">But something encouraging happened very quickly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">After just a short time in care, Tomy developed a strong appetite.

One of the key methods involved\u00a0<strong>physical therapy using specialized exercise balls<\/strong>, which allowed Tomy to gradually build strength in his legs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">He also received\u00a0<strong>laser therapy<\/strong>, a gentle treatment that helps reduce inflammation and speed up healing after surgery while preventing infection.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">During these sessions, Tomy remained calm and cooperative \u2014 especially when small treats were offered as encouragement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">Slowly, day by day, his body became stronger.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image ext-animate--on ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14219\" src=\"https:\/\/dogs.johanshal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-534.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading ext-animate--on ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\"><strong>Running Again on the Grass<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">As Tomy\u2019s health improved, something beautiful began to happen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">The once-fragile puppy started playing again.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ext-animate--on wp-block-paragraph ext-animate ext-animated-fade-up\" data-ext-animate=\"fade-up\" data-ext-animated=\"true\">He ran across grassy fields, chased toys, and interacted happily with other dogs around him.
