This Injured Dog Wouldn't Let Anyone Touch Him Until.... | The Dodo 

just wanna add that it's amazing how many people will calls dogs in shelters or at the vet "aggressive" when in reality they're just in pain and scared. not necessarily 'aggressive' in this vid, but it's def something to keep in mind if you're ever gonna adopt or help a dog out

That dog didn't hurt his tail, somebody did this to him. It's probably why he was so wary of people due to the pain a human caused him.

Hello everyone it's Aron here, Satria's rescuer. I thought i'd explain a couple of things that have been prevailing from the comments: 1. At the time of the rescue he'd been running around the village with nobody able to catch him. In order to catch him, I'd enlisted the help of professionals (as you can see I could not get near him either). 2. Everyone in the village was petrified that he was a diseased dog who would bite them and pass on the disease and nobody knew what to do. I of course wish someone would have acted sooner, but I also understand why people may have reacted in this way. 3. We don't know what happened to sever his tail. I was told he bit it off, which initially supported a theory that he may have a dreaded zoonotic neurological disease which also kills humans. There is a large fear of this in Bali. 4. As to why he went back to his territory: Satria is a free roaming dog, which is not common in the west, but in Bali, dogs often have humans but are allowed to roam. This has drawbacks and benefits for the dogs. 5. As to why he went back to his humans: Knowing it was based on fear, I wanted to give the humans a chance. So I went back and provided my best efforts in education, support and explanation about how to help. When Satria returned healthy, so very happy. I continued my visits and to this day I regularly visit. 6. I believe in an educational approach and am proud to say this case is a great example of that. 7. This rescue was in the pandemic, on 6th March 2022. I still visit Satria regularly and am happy to see him happy and healthy. A big thank you for messages of support and my apologies if anybody thinks I did the wrong thing. Rescuing here is very hard and I try my best with the situations I'm presented with. I hope you enjoyed the video and consider supporting my efforts - my channel is 'Sun and Sage Rescues' and you can see my video on Satria there, as well as many others. Aron

What a nice man that he keeps going back to visit Satria months after. He not only helped him in his worst days but also made sure he was still ok at his forever home. Kudos to him!

I was rooting for the rescuer to keep him!

😂"just wants snacks and love". Don't we all 😂

People like you, dear Aron, are making this planet a better place! Thank you for making a difference - hugs from Germany 🤗

He knows you help him, he like you.

Thank you Aron for being persistent to help Satria.

This sweet man took a chance on this beauty!!This dog was neglected and abused!! That's why he didn't want anyone near him!! But he still figured out a way to get him to trust and love, again!! And he did it!! It took 21 days but he never gave up!! Thank You For Caring!!❤😊

This is one, of many examples, as to why it's critical to support animal rescue centers. They do much needed life-saving work but need each viewers' help to continue. Hope & sympathy alone don't feed or pay the vet bills unfortunately, and every cent to these animals is a matter of life and deth. Plz choose life for these animals and donate, either to this shelter in the video or to one of your choice. Rescuing animals is truly a worldwide collective effort...Plz join this noble effort.

I just hope that his family takes care of him. Thanks very much for saving him. You are a very kind person. Keep an eye on him. Please

Satria is your friend til the last beat of his heart. ❤

Thank you for helping this beautiful pup 🐶 ❤️

Thank you so much for realising that Satria was in pain and not being aggressive by nature. I do wonder what would have happened to him if his family couldn't take him to the vets....would they have continued to let him suffer and possibly abandon him. Your kindness and perseverance in both getting Satria to the vets, but visiting daily and even when he's back home, shows what a wonderful human you are....thank you Aron. 🙏🐶😍❤

What a good dog and what a good man.

If my dog ran away, for whatever reason and came back to me, you would see me crying in joy. I am really glad that this sweet boy is better now.

This dog was in real need for a good soul! It found you - and you both deserve heaven on earth!

Aron you are an angel...thank you for all you do for these suffering souls.

Better to get him adopted in good loving caring family. Thank u for helping him.❤

Because of the people like Aron I have hope for our world! Thank You Aron for you kindness! ❤️

That man is probably the only one that pays attention to him.

Taking care of that dog is just fantastic. Great job guy.

I like the fact that this guy keeps coming back to visit!

Thank you for helping dogs in Indonesia. They definitely need all the help they can get.

Thank you so much for saving Satria.

This is not a typical story from Bali/Indonesia, and I'm glad this dog has a nice home. But there are so many stories from Bali about the horrendous way dogs are treated and abandoned there, that it's time people from other countries started shaming the Indonesian government and withholding tourism dollars (which are vital to Bali, especially) until something is done to ameliorate the situation. I realize this is probably a fool's errand, but even if small changes are made, it's worth it.

this man has a heart of gold

I wish Satria a long healthy loving life ❤️❤️

Very thanks for help LOVE Friends ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Poor soul... I can not even imagine the pain and desperation he must have been through. God help you for helping him!!

Kudos to you for not judging the family and the situation as a western which is easy to do, as a westerner myself. You kept a positive attitude throughout and chose to educate the family as you saw fit, with kindness and genuine sincerity. May we all approach such situations with the same attitude. 🙏🙏

Thank you for your support. People should strive to be as kind as you. Rescue is hard!

Maybe the family learned about caring for animals. In some parts of the world people need to change the way they think about animals. I hope this rescuer is helping to do that.

He’s such a good boy I’m glad he’s all better 🥺❤️🙏🏻

You are wonderful for helping the beautiful dog.

I too am not so nice when I am in pain...I am so glad and grateful for people that can look beyond, like this awesome gentleman.

His tail looks great. Thank you for saving him

Thank you for trying your best to rescue the aggressive dog with a pain on the tail and brought to the vet for treatment! Thank you for giving your help so the dog will get healthy!

Poor babypup 😢😢😢😢😢😢Bless you for loving, rescuing, and nurturing him to life and health ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Awe. I’m happy to see him doing so good. He’s put on weight and has a new friend for life. Very grateful.

Bali...there are rural slaugtherhouses..where dogs are suffering wild tortures,macabres tortures....all kind of nightmares...extreme pain..more tasty meat...bali....paradises...but huge hell for animals

Guy's a superstar...not convinced regarding "the family"

Dankeschön ❤🙏❤️

Amazing work once again, Aron 🎉 So glad to see that Satria comes back healthy and strong. You've done wonderful job to also engage with the family so that they can see a good TLC to their pets can go a long way.

I wonder why the family did not have that dog in their backyard and why was he running loose in the streets? I guess we'll never know the answer but at least this sweet guy make sure that the dog got help. I hope the family really really appreciates what was done for them.

this guy is like an Angel ....omg...

that guy is a hero! and what a beautiful dog. it looked like he was the subject of neglect even before the accident with the tail and the best feeding and care was while in hospital.

thank you, Aron, for rescuing Satria! You are so beautiful =:)

You are a treasure. He will always be grateful to you xxx

Did the dog really want to be back home? Glad he was taken to get help though!

I have seen posts with this gentleman before and all I can say is God bless you sir, it does my heart good to know that there are other fellow human beings out there like you I pray God richly bless you for your kindness; may He give you the ability to take care of many more precious animals!! I know if not here on Earth, then in heaven, you will have many, many blessings stored up, for all the compassion and love that, you have shared with these beautiful creatures!!!! ❤️🐕🥰👍🙏

I feel so bad for that beautiful animal. God help them

God bless you for rescuing this poor Earth Angel. I wish I could give him a forever home, he's gorgeous❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.

Very nice to see those gentleman manage to help those sick animal.

Bless you for helping that beautiful sweetheart, I pray that his family takes care of him and watches him closer then they did before.

Status is beautiful and so sweet! God bless you all, for everything you do!!! ❤❤❤❤

I was having the worst day ever and never would have dreamed about smiling BUT… I love this channel.

He looks pretty good without a tail.

What a joy!

Gracias The Dodo por ayudar a este bonito perro y a otros muchos. gracias por tu humanidad y compasión.♥♥♥♥♥

Your hero 🦸‍♂️!!!!!!

HERO!

The ending of these kinds of stories is usually the dog goes to a happy well financed home however, I think these are one of those stories where the family probably care for the animal, but they can’t afford the kind of care we would expect. The fact that he visited the dog up to nine months later and the dog seem happy and well fed is very encouraging. so in this instance, I say he was a success story in that the family seems to have been able to turn around the care for the dog and the dog is comfortable with his environment. I kudos to the young man who took that time and spent that money to help the dog and I would expect that he probably will make sure that that dog is OK.

Thank you all who made this happen. Most of all the rescuer.

Thank you for saving Satria 🙏🏻🍀🌟🌷🧡🐕

What a sweetheart. God bless everyone who helped that cutie❤️🙏🏽❤️

Thank you for your loving kindness! God bless you!

He is very skinney..I hope his family feeds him enough

Thank you so much save this cute lovely adorable beautiful brave buddy, god bless you.

God bless you and all the animals!

This made me cry, thank you to everyone who has a kind heart that would do things that i would.. animals need it live line we do..

Thank you!

There is no such thing as a dangerous dog. They are merely traumatized and require time to lower their guard.

Thank you for saving him. Need more people like you. God bless you and the handsome boy

Thank you for saving him 🙏🙏🙏

Beautiful boy❤🙏🏽♥️🙏🏽

Sincere thanks earth angel

Thanks that you exist and your parents that raised a good human full of a heart of gold

Dogs know when you help them.

Hoping his family really loved and cared for him. He’s a good boy! ❤❤❤

Thank you for help him this poor dog. Got bless you.

Im glad the family got their dog back. Everyone looks happy. Dog looks healthy and thriving. Thank you

That poor dog was starving and someone did that to his tail. People can be so evil. The kind man that saved him should have adopted him too.

You are Awesome... Such a Beautiful Pup..Thank You for Saving and for Sharing.

The tail stump wiggling was sooo cute

God bless you baby I love you 😘❤️

So cute how he loves him and helped him. I’m glad he chose to help and was friendly and comforting to him.

You are an amazing person. Thank you for what you do. ❤❤❤

He’s so sweet

There are no “mean” dogs or cats. They are all terrified. Frightened animals appear to be “mean.”🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗👍🏻✌🏻💋

God bless you!

just had to drop a comment to say how amazing this video was.

We could all use some snacks and love

Just a thank you to the rescuer!!! For all of your hard work and dedication to this poor pooch. But I have to ask, was he already out on the street AGAIN? On your last visit that was on the video?

Great job good luck APPRECIABLE JOB ❤

God bless you ❤
