Bret Winingar and his son Zach were cruising along the rural outskirts of Little Rock on their adventure bikes. Suddenly, they stumbled upon a crate lying concealed in the weeds.
As they closed in, they noticed the top of the crate was partially chewed off. They knew this wasn’t a good sign and immediately worked to open the crate.

The duo was shocked to find an extremely skeletal dog rotting away in a corner of the crate. Her body was covered with bleeding wounds, which came from sores that had developed after spending weeks in the crate.

Bret and Zach named the dog Charlie Bravo and gave her whatever food and water they had. They hurried back home and brought a vehicle to tow away the dog.
At the vet’s, it was established that Charlie was in shock due to starvation and claustrophobia. She couldn’t even walk due to her weakened state, but the Winingars promised to help her survive.
