A dog which resorted to eating bits of glass and old batteries after being abandoned is slowly recovering.
The dog, who has been named Eric by veterinary staff, was so emaciated that the pet's ribs could be seen clearly poking through his fur.
He was found in the garden of an empty council house in Accrington, Lancashire, by a member of the public earlier this month.
RSPCA inspectors said Eric, pictured after he was found, was the thinnest dog they have seen survive. He was found in the garden of an empty council house in Accrington, Lancashire
The dog was found covered in urine, and his faeces had pieces of glass, metal and bits of batteries in it.
Eric was so weak when rescued that he promptly collapsed and had to be wrapped in metallic thermal blankets to keep him warm.
But now Eric is on the road to recovery after being given round-the-clock care.
Just a few weeks ago, he could not even stand or lift his head, but in a photo taken this week, he looks much healthier and happier.

Eric has been described as a an unneutered male bull breed type.
According to the Kennel Club, a male bulldog should weigh 25kg, or around 55 pounds.
When Eric arrived at the centre, he weighed just 11.6kg, or around 25 pounds, which is under half of what he should weigh.
But this week, he weighed 12.8kg (28 pounds), which shows that Eric is on the road to recovery after his horrific neglect.
The three pound weight gain
One RSPCA inspector said Eric was the thinnest dog that she had ever seen alive.
Heart-breaking photos showed his claws which were so long and over-grown that they curled over.
He was hospitalised for a week before being put onto a recovery diet.
The dog has now been sent to a foster home where he can recover.

Since his rescue earlier this month, Eric has put on more than a kilo of weight as he recovers

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
