The Hope for Paws animal rescue organisation in Los Angeles posted this hearthbreaking video of Woody the abandoned poodle at the weekend.

The clip claims when Woody’s owner died, the family sold their house and left the dog behind.
Neighbours left him food and water as they looked for someone to take care of him.
The video shows staff from the rescue centre encouraging Woody to leave the shed.
“For the first time in a long time, Woody felt love again," the video explains.
After being rescued, Woody was given a makeover.
With his matted fur shaved off by staff.
Underneath the fur, Woody was a tiny and frail dog.
But under the care of Hope for Paws he began to regain his strength.
Staff say all Woody now needs is a forever home.
