Bring Bingo Back

Hi, I’m BINGO!

I am a min pin x chihuahua and this is my story...

As you are reading this, I am chained up by my neck to a tree. I have been here since being given away by my previous owner over 2 years ago. You will find me here rain or shine - 24/7, 365.

During the day, it's hot and extremely humid, with usual temperatures exceeding 30C. I weigh a mere 2.5kg so my ribs and spine stick out and makes it sore to sleep on the concrete floor and in my wire cage. My wire cage doesn’t shelter me from heavy rain, so I am left alone soaking wet, frightened and shivering under the tree.

For as long as I can remember, I have been abused and neglected by my owners - you could say that I have had a pretty 'ruff' life. Despite this, I am still a very friendly and quiet dog. However, I am easily startled and often very anxious. I am occasionally beaten, and will cry out for help, but I have nobody to protect me.

Not long ago, I was attacked and severely injured by a big dog and lost a lot of blood, everyone in the neighbourhood was sure I was going to die. However, I miraculously survived, without being taken to a veterinarian for proper treatment.

I am lucky to still be alive and it was fate that I met a visitor in my neighbourhood. Through our brief interaction, this human and I have developed a special bond and I was heartbroken that she had to go home. Before she left, she convinced my current owner to let her adopt me and promised to take me home to New Zealand with her.

My owner-to-be is extremely determined to have me in her arms again and to be a part of her family.

She is trying very hard to get the funds required for the importing process and currently works part-time in retail, whilst completing a masters degree full-time.

But we need your help to give me another chance at life - new life filled with unconditional love, adventures and lots of cuddles and kisses!
