When this little dog named “Freddie Mercury” was in a shelter, it was hard to see beyond her outward appearance. She needed to have 17 teeth extracted, and her small body was permanently twisted, with one of her legs growing at an unusual angle. Nevertheless, this puppy deserved a happy life. For people, on the other hand, it was challenging to look beyond her outward appearance.
Fortunately, there are angels who are surprised by the appearance of an animal. They only care about what this animal needs! Angela, one of those angels, has the warmest heart. She saw Freddie in the shelter and realized that she couldn’t adopt her, although no one expected her to.
Angela brought Freddie home. She had a moment of tranquility when she first saw Freddie struggling to stand and walk. She was very aware that Freddie would be a medical challenge, but she was determined to be patient. That’s exactly what Freddie needed!
Freddie’s new mother showed her what it was like to be loved unconditionally. As Freddie grew in confidence and realized that her mother was the embodiment of her life, she stopped expressing her gratitude for a daily struggle. Angela would shower her with affectionate kisses. “Thank you for coming to my aid, Mom!” Freddie jumped on her back. Freddie’s mother was frequently asked how she could dedicate so much time and attention to a dog that wouldn’t enjoy running, and her answer was simple: because she deserved it!
This is one of our all-time favorite rescue stories. Dogs with special needs have the same right to happiness as everyone else. Don’t underestimate them!
