Carla Abellana’s heart bled when she recently learned about a case of another dog which was abused and abandoned by its irresponsible owner.
The Kapuso actress spoke up about the incident on her Instagram page yesterday, Oct. 7, posting a picture of a badly injured dog named Gabriel.
According to Abellana, the dog’s owner planned to throw Gabriel in the highway or have him run over by a car.
“This is Gabriel, a puppy that is severely neglected and has been suffering for a year inside a small cage. He was seen being dragged by his owner to be disposed of,” Abellana stated.
Luckily for Gabriel, a well-meaning citizen came to his rescue.
“How cruel can some humans be?” Abellana asked, while also sharing that a good Samaritan didn’t hesitate to take Gabriel home.

“It seems that he is suffering from severe mange and part of his face is swollen,” she said. Abellana is thus asking her fans and followers for aid for Gabriel’s needs, which include treatments with a veterinarian.
“We are knocking at your good hearts for some help so we can bring him to a [vet] right away to be checked and be given proper meds,” she said. “More than his sick physical body, we are sure that his heart is torn due to the horrible experience he has been having with his human owners. Let us all help Gabriel!”
To those who want to help Gabriel, Abellana is asking interested parties to check the Instagram page of @iamjczurc and its bio link. JB
