Little dog

Meg is a little caramel-colored furry girl who recently appeared on the porch of a house in Texas , United States. The owner of the place could not walk past when he found her: with her fur unkempt, malnourished, with mange and full of fleas.

It was clear that this mysterious dog had spent a lot of time on the streets , at least that was what was reflected in her deep sad eyes that seemed to have lost hope of having a decent life.

The owner of the house posted what happened on Facebook and, miraculously, it didn’t take long for some animal-loving angels to appear, willing to do everything possible to help the furry little girl.

The rescuers from the This is Houston shelter arrived at the house in question to meet Meg and provide her with all their support. As soon as they saw her they knew they needed to act quickly to rid her of all her discomfort and melancholy.

Meg weighed less than 5 kilograms when she was found . She had mange, infections, she was missing half an ear and she was infested with fleas, making it one of the worst cases that the veterinarian who evaluated her has seen.

With so much way to go, the rescuers decided to begin Meg’s rehabilitation by treating her skin problems . He began taking antibiotics and being under constant monitoring. And, little by little, his body showed encouraging improvements.

Her rescuers accompany her every step she takes and fight to make her smile. His skin has regained its natural shine and he is back to the vet to continue treatment until his health is back to normal.

“She has her whole life ahead of her and we can’t wait to show her that things get better from here,” the shelter said.

Meg’s injured paw cannot be saved and will need to be removed . But, her rescuers trust that this will be the best so that she can have a full life and, without a doubt, she will learn to move around because she is a brave canine.

While she goes to her forever home , Meg is filled with love from thousands of Internet users who send her different gifts like the beautiful princess she is; They recently sent him a beautiful prayer blanket to keep him warm.
