Homeless, Injured Poodle Thanks Her Rescuer With A Sweet Gesture, Brings Rescuer To Tears
When Annie Hart, the founder of the animal rescue organization Rescue From The Hart, got a call about a dog being hit by a car in South Los Angeles, she rushed to the spot with fellow rescuer Eldad Hagar of the Hope For Paws rescue organization, writres ilovemydogsomuch
They reached the spot to find a Poodle with matted fur, clinging to a wall, looking scared, lost and injured. Annie slowly approached her, unsure of the extent of her injuries and not sure how she would react.
Annie slowly started stroking the dog’s back. Once she began getting positive signs from the dog, Annie gently picked her up and put her in her lap. What happened next brought Annie to tears.
The dog, who had been deprived of love for who knows how long, decided to show her appreciation for Annie’s kindness by saying ‘thank you’ with kisses. This left Annie speechless and her eyes welled up. What a feeling it must have been!
Annie picked her up and took her to their car. On the way to the vet, they decided to name her Layla. Her big, trusting eyes makes one wonder why she was left to fend for herself on the streets.
Back at the vet, the extent of Layla’s injuries came to light. She had suffered severe intestinal damage and was put into critical care. She ended up being hospitalized for two weeks.
Although her weak body struggled to recover, Layla’s new foster parents visited Layla in the hospital daily, giving her much needed love and support. With all the love and care she got, Layla slowly began to improve.
Once she was deemed fit to be released, her foster parents took her home. But she still needed care and still had some recovery to do. With constant care and love from her foster parents, she managed a full recovery.
Her rescuers soon found her a forever home where she now resides, never having to fear about being out on the streets again.
