This is the moment a puppy who was left to die on the side of a road excitedly see his rescuers for the first time.
The weak dog can be seen wagging her tail excitedly as a team from Animal Aid Unlimited armed with a camera approach her.

She can’t lift herself from the ground but musters up the strength to show them her delight as a rescuer gives her some much needed affection.
The poorly mutt can be seen covered in sores and pants heavily as one of the men strokes her scrawny body.

She had been abandoned on the side of a road in Udaipur, India, before she was found and taken to the rescue centre.
The pooch spent 14 days being treated for distemper with antibiotics and IV fluids and with the team’s support began eating and walking again.
