A dog arrived at a shelter weighing only 12 lb, which is considered emaciated for her size. The team at One Tail at a Time was unsure how she ended up in this condition, but they were determined to help her. They started by taking her to the emergency vet, where she spent a week regaining her strength and learning the basics.
As she progressed, she moved into a foster home, where her family helped her regain her strength and introduced her to the fun aspects of being a dog. They taught her how to play, built her confidence, and helped her let her guard down. With time, patience, and support, she was able to recover and find a family of her own.
Recoveries like this take time and effort, but they are possible when people are willing to give dogs like Poppy the care and attention they need. The team's support and patience paid off, and Poppy is now living a happy and healthy life with her new family. She is no longer depleted and weak, but instead is thriving and full of energy.
