Meet Beetlejuice.

This tough puppy continues to defy the odds and fights to stay alive. 

The four-week-old pit bull was surrendered after a cruelty check that found his two siblings had already passed.

For the first few days it was touch and go whether he would survive. He arrived at Everett Animal Shelter with a body score of 1 out of 9 with pale gums and trembling. He was severely malnourished and dehydrated. 

Beetlejuice started to crash, and the team jumped into action to save him. 

 

He was unable to keep food down and had to be fed through a syringe. He was immediately placed on IV fluids and received around-the-clock care.
