I had to put my beloved 14 year old dog to sleep in October. I was heartbroken, but this little cutie has helped to heal it. She was found on the streets of Romania with severe demodex (mange). The dog catcher took her to the pound to be euthanised but a local shelter saved her and nursed her back to health. She’s a 2 year old crossbreed and her name is Faith. I’ve had her 10 days and she’s a real sweetheart. She’s never lived in a house or walked on a leash before so everything is new. Even the language!

So glad she was rescued - pic 1 is heartbreaking but pic 2 she looks like a different dog! Just amazing what care and love can do.
Hope you you both have a happy life together.

That first picture of her just broke my heart. You can see the misery in her expression. I wonder how long she was living on the streets with that horrible mange. I have read that mange is unbearably itchy, but it must be pretty painful too when they scratch their skin raw and develop open sores. Her ear just looks awful. I cannot stand to see an animal in pain. And the picture of her after she was treated is just night and day different! She looks so much more alert and years younger too. Bless you for giving this baby a home and an opportunity to have a fulfilling life. I'm sure she will be giving back to you twofold. May the two of you share many many years of joy and companionship. Can you share the story of how you came to find her?

Awww, so happy for both of you! My sister just rescued a dog from Turkey, though she had lived in a home with a family at one point. Enjoy your time with Faith and keep us updated on her progress!
