Malnourished and dying, stray Miley saved from Los Angeles trash heap AN ABANDONED dog living among a "tsunami" of garbage on a Los Angeles trash heap has been saved by a pet charity. Eldad Hagar recorded footage of the appalling condition the dog was in when he found her. Covered in mange and infections and surrounded by trash, the dog which he named Miley was so weak and defeated she "didn't even have the energy" to run away from him, Mr Hagar told the Huffington Post. "When I got there, I almost couldn't believe what I was seeing," he said. It's almost as if this place was struck by a tsunami. Mr Hagar, who runs of animal rescue organization Hope for Paws, sat with the dog for an hour to build her trust. He then took her to an animal hospital where a vet found discovered that as well as the mange and bacterial infections, Miley was suffering from parasites and malnutrition. Over the coming weeks she was treated with antibiotics and medicated baths and her physical state began to slowly improve. Shocking neglect... Miley was discoverd half-dead on the trash heap on the outskirts of Los Angeles.

"Miley took Frankie under her wing and they quickly became really good friends," Mr Hagar said. Best mates... Miley and Frankie are inseperable. Picture: Hope for Paws Doing better... Miley is returning to full health.
