A woman broke the rules in the name of helping some neglected dogs. Pia Triviño of Santa Rosa, Philippines took to social media to tell the story of two dogs behind a locked gate that were the victims of a bank seizure. As a result, the dogs were unfed and neglected.

“I was told that this house was taken by the bank from the previous owners and they werent allowed to get their stuff inside including the dogs because apparently it was considered a ‘thing,'” she wrote on Facebook. “Clearly they’re no longer fed properly, no more baths and they lie next to their dirt. They’re skinny and almost looks that they’re going to die soon.”

Pia had asked neighbors to feed the dogs, but eventually took the task upon herself. And a good neighbor donated 10 pounds of food to help.

“The dogs hesitated to come at first,” wrote Pia Triviño. “Probably traumatized from weeks of not having anything to eat. But slowly they approached the plastic container of food and fresh water we managed to slip under the steel gates. They ate it all in less than 2 minutes.”
She was unable to actually free the dogs, but hope is not lost. According to Pia, the Philippine Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) is on the case!
And PAWS is now finally intouch with us. They've recieved so much tags and posts on their FB page. Ahhh a big thanks to everyone who helped!

We’re so glad she took the steps necessary to help these poor dogs. Even if it did mean breaking some rules.
