These 2 Puppies Were Saved From a Tar Pit Moments Before Their Certain Death

For many stray dogs around the world, life is difficult and much too short. But for these two puppies who were thrown into a tar pit in Chile and left to die, a group of unlikely heroes came along and rescued them, giving them a second chance and a new lease on life.

Unlikely Heroes

Airsoft isn’t exactly a sport that makes one immediately think of animal rescue. But in June 2013, the Axis Airsoft Group of Antogafast, Chile did something extraordinary that put them into that category of heroes.

Strange Cries

The Axis Airsoft Group was about to start shooting when they heard strange cries somewhere in the distance. When they went to investigate the source of the noise, they came across two puppies struggling to escape a pool of tar.

Human Cruelty

The group quickly realized that the dogs weren’t trapped on account of some random bit of misfortune. Rather, it was clear to them that the pups had been thrown into the tar pit on purpose.

The Need to Act Fast

The dogs were struggling for survival, but the tar was making it impossible for them to gain any traction on their own and make it out. Instead, they were being pulled further down into the pit.
