He Decided She Didn’t Deserve To Eat, They Fought To Prove She ‘Deserved’ The World


Meet Angel, and this is her story. Angel was purposely starved and on the brink of death when she was rescued in the nick of time. Her organs had begun to shut down, and it was clear from her face that she was in pain, weak, and afraid. Every bone on her body painfully showed, a stark testament to the severe neglect she had endured.


Angel’s rescuers found her in a deplorable state, her body emaciated and her spirit nearly broken. They acted swiftly, transporting her to a veterinary clinic where a team of compassionate professionals worked tirelessly to stabilize her. The initial prognosis was grim, but they were determined to give Angel a fighting chance.

The first few days were critical. Angel was placed on a carefully monitored refeeding program to ensure her fragile body could begin to accept and process nourishment without causing further harm. The veterinary team administered fluids and medications to support her failing organs, working around the clock to alleviate her pain and bring her back from the brink.

Despite the odds, Angel’s spirit began to show through. Her eyes, though clouded with fear and pain, held a flicker of hope. The dedicated team of vets and volunteers showered her with gentle words and tender care, willing her to fight for her life. Slowly but surely, Angel began to respond.

Her journey to recovery was slow and fraught with challenges. Each day, Angel showed signs of improvement, however small. She began to regain strength, and her body, once skeletal, started to fill out as the nutrients took effect. The pain in her eyes gradually gave way to a softer, more trusting gaze as she realized she was safe and loved.


The turning point came when Angel, after weeks of intensive care, managed to stand on her own. This small victory was met with tears of joy from her caregivers, who had invested so much love and effort into her recovery. It was a testament to Angel’s incredible resilience and the power of compassion.

As the months passed, Angel continued to heal, both physically and emotionally. Her once-bony frame transformed into a healthy, vibrant body. Her fur grew back, and her eyes sparkled with a newfound zest for life. The scared, emaciated dog who had been on the verge of death was now unrecognizable.

Angel’s story spread, touching the hearts of many who followed her journey. She became a symbol of hope and the transformative power of love and care. People from all over sent messages of support and encouragement, inspired by her remarkable recovery.

Eventually, Angel found her forever home with a family who adored her and understood her past. They provided her with the love and stability she deserved, ensuring she would never suffer again. Angel thrived in her new environment, her days filled with joy, play, and the warmth of a loving home.

Angel’s story is a powerful reminder of the resilience of animals and the profound impact that kindness and compassion can have. From the brink of death to a life filled with love, Angel’s journey is a testament to the strength of the spirit and the difference that dedicated, caring individuals can make. She stands as an inspiration to all, a true embodiment of hope and healing.

Angel’s body wasn’t just shutting down but so was she. Being unloved and mistreated for this long had really broken her down. But that was all about to change– now that she was in the care of loving people.

For a while, it was touch and go. At this stage of starvation, survival is uncertain. But she had really smart people in her corner that knew just what to do. They fed her small amounts of food throughout the day. She was also given IV nutrition, antibiotics, and medicine for pain.

Each day, Angel improved. As Rescue From The Hart says in their video, “We lent her our strength, until one day she found her own,” is so profound. But as you will see, they were spot on! Angel took their lead. They saw positivity in their eyes and believed them when they told her that she is now loved and will be okay. And then… she stood up all on her own! Do you know how incredible that is?!

With a steady diet and continued medical care, Angel gained weight. Her body was no longer weak. She looked so healthy and was beginning to understand what it meant to be a dog.

She made friends at her foster home and then Angel received the best news possible– Angel found a forever home!
