Animal-loving activist and soulful Scottish singer Sandi Thom has given abandoned Artax a second chance at life and reminds people to never give up on their furry friends.
A couple of months ago, Artax, an American Akita, was taken from a kennel where she was found in a devastating state.
Sandi, who is the chairwoman and voluntary manager for the Bahrain Animal Rescue Centre (BARC), said: “I was sent a video of Artax by fellow rescuer Fathiya Al Bastaki. Artax was in some kind of gravel pit kennel struggling to stand let alone walk. I couldn’t believe my eyes and immediately asked for the location to get her out of there.”
After research, it seems that she was imported from Russia in 2017 as a trophy dog and when she fell ill, from what was believed to be tick paralysis; she was then surrendered to a facility.
