After surviving a brutal attack by his mother, the tiny puppy made a miraculous recovery—and finally found a loving home.

A three-week-old puppy made a miraculous recovery after suffering a horrific injury.

May was just a baby when she went to go get some food out of her pit bull mother’s bowl, and was attacked.

Surgery: Her owners soon surrendered her to Vet Ranch, who perform free medical procedures (above) to homeless animals

That is when Vet Ranch stepped in, a program that treats homeless animals.

In May’s case it was a long road, and even after she had her fractured jaw repaired she could not eat any food at all for a week, having to be fed instead through a tube.

The owners of May could not afford treatment after the incident and and surrendered her

Amazing: May (above with her vet shortly before leaving) has now been adopted by a new family

May improved quickly however, and in a week was eating food mixed with milk, and after six weeks was eating dog food all on her own, looking as if nothing had ever happened.
