His mother and littermates were killed in a traffic accident, and he appeared alone at a resort at just 2 months old. Because he was so young, other dogs prevented him from eating properly, leaving him severely malnourished with serious skin disease and unable to walk well.He was rescued at around 3 months of age in October 2025 and spent two months in a veterinary hospital receiving treatment and rehabilitation. After making a full recovery, he stayed at the resort while completing health checks and travel procedures.
