An ordinary day at work for a woman turned into the opportunity to save the life of an abandoned dog inside a house that was suffering the weight of neglect.
The residence located in Carbon County, Pennsylvania, was the scene of a cruel and completely reprehensible act. The owners of the property kept a defenseless dog hidden in the attic without giving it the minimum care that any pet requires.
The room was full of feces and the dog’s attempts to escape could be seen on the walls. Jami responded to the unfortunate situation without thinking twice; her heart only told her that she had to be rescued.
It is impossible to know how long the dog had been resisting such inhumane treatment.
Her body was very weak and she also lived in a stinking room without any food. However, the rescuer was surprised to discover how loving the little furry dog could be.
The creature, named Remi, showed Lassell how affectionate and grateful she was, an attitude that immediately impressed the woman.
“She’s the most affectionate dog I’ve ever met. As soon as she saw me, she started wagging her tail, she just wanted love,” Lassell explained.
Although the woman’s first plan when she responded to the rescue call was to get the dog out of the place and provide support during her recovery, it must be said that in recent weeks the situation has changed completely.
Jami will finish rehabilitating the dog to become her official mother for the rest of her days. After seeing firsthand the pain she had to endure and how noble this little animal is, she refuses to leave her alone. And even more so now that the dog might need surgery.
The specialist determined that one of Remi’s legs was broken and that if he doesn’t recover, surgery would be necessary. This news shocked Lassell even more, who admires Remi for everything he has endured and how noble he continues to be with humans.
Despite having suffered, this little dog can’t stop giving love to every living creature that crosses her path. And her heart overflows even more when it comes to children.
In addition to joining a family with children, the dog also met another canine who has become her best friend. This is Pittie, another of the family’s pets who is only 9 months old.
Since the furry one came into the lives of these people, there has been more activity in the house. But for Lassell, with Remi she can now feel that the core is complete:
«We have two cats and two dogs, and she just completed everything. She is my little baby,» said the loving owner.
