What kind of person mistreats a dog to the point that they’re reduced to skin and bones? I’ll never understand people who bring dogs into their homes only to completely ignore them.
If you don’t want or care about dogs, don’t adopt one. They’d be far better off with someone who will truly look after them.
In many cases like this, the dog winds up abandoned once the owner no longer wants them, left to fend for themselves on the street.
When rescuers from New York’s AMA Animal Rescue found this severely emaciated pup, she could barely move. Thankfully, her life took a different path from that moment on.
Kiki Had Been Barely Hanging On For A While
When Kiki was discovered, rescuers acted fast. She’d suffered so long that she was too weak to go on much longer.
I genuinely don’t understand how anyone could keep a dog just to let it suffer like this. She never deserved such treatment.
The New York rescue team quickly brought her to their shelter to provide immediate care, but they understood it wouldn’t be enough on its own.
Kiki needed a safe, nurturing home where someone could care for her and monitor her progress closely.
They gave her a real shot at recovery by placing her in a loving foster home, and from that point on, everything began to change.
Even though she was still frail, it made a huge difference just having someone show her love and care. Her foster family worked hard to help her slowly regain her strength.
Kiki Is Now Living In Her Forever Home
It’s going to be a slow road, but it will allow Kiki to heal and grow into the beautiful dog she was meant to be. Her strength has been steadily coming back, which is a great sign.
Her personality is starting to shine through as she gets more playful at home. Her foster family always made her feel valued and safe.
She would run straight to her foster mom whenever she came home, always ready for cuddles. Kiki felt deeply loved when she was with her.
That love turned into something more permanent, as her foster mom quickly realized she couldn’t part with her. Their connection was simply too strong.
Now, Kiki is right where she belongs, with the very people who showed her how good life can really be.
It’s always uplifting to witness a story that starts off so grim and ends in such a joyful way. Kindness like this always reminds me there are good people out there fighting for animals.
