He Sat By The Road Missing His Once-Shiny Coat And ‘Needing Love’


The worst-looking stray dog this rescuer had ever encountered was found sitting by the road, appearing weak and neglected. Despite his dire condition, which led many to advise euthanasia as a merciful end, the rescuer saw a different potential in this canine. With eyes that held a glimmer of hope and a resilience in his posture, this dog was far from ready to give up.


Against the odds, he displayed an undeniable will to live, proving that underneath his rough exterior, there was still plenty of life and spirit left in him. His journey to recovery began with this compassionate rescuer’s decision to nurture and heal, rather than end his life prematurely.

When he stepped out of the transporter’s vehicle, he lifted his head and smiled broadly!

The dog had the desire to keep going and proved it every step of the way. And as he got better and better, his true appearance began to show.

His fur was orange at first. Then white patches were added! Finally, Raleigh would discover his ideal companion in life, and it’s a wonderful thing to behold.
