Every canine deserves a life brimming with joy, affection, and fulfillment. Sadly, this isn’t often the reality.
Numerous dogs find themselves abandoned and lacking food, shelter, and essential veterinary care. Consequently, many furry friends grapple with serious health issues.
Fortunately, there are compassionate individuals dedicated to rescuing stray dogs and providing them with the love and care they desperately need.
It’s Never Too Late
Sheridan, a passionate animal advocate, enjoys providing assistance to animals in distress. With her four dogs, a foster pup, and even a tiny hedgehog, her home is lively. But when she received a message about a dog in need, she promptly cleared space for one more.
Ava had been scavenging the streets for food, but her life took a dramatic turn when she was rescued by a wonderful organization.
After undergoing medical assessments, the staff discovered she had serious heart problems. They performed heart surgery and inserted a stent, but unfortunately, they couldn’t fully cure her. Sadly, Ava didn’t have much time left.
To distract herself from the heartbreaking circumstances, Sheridan adopted Ava. However, the situation didn’t unfold as she had hoped.
“I had to consider the commitment of keeping her permanently, but once she arrived home, I realized that her medical situation was secondary,” Sheridan shared with Geobeats.
After just a couple of days, Ava’s new family fell deeply in love with her, making it impossible to part ways. And Ava is thriving!
Ava finally experienced the warmth of a loving family that cherished every moment together. She transformed into the most energetic pup in the neighborhood, doing everything her heart desires.
Little Furry Helper
Sheridan continued to foster other pups, and Ava was wholeheartedly on board with it.
Whenever Sheridan brought home new puppies, Ava would bounce with excitement, throwing them the biggest welcome celebration. If a shy pup appeared a bit anxious in their new environment, she would rush over to comfort them and assure them they were safe.
“She is so inviting and gives them the necessary time to acclimate. She knows her boundaries well and is skilled at understanding other dogs—it’s almost as if they see her as their mother,” Sheridan remarked.
Having so many puppies around brought immense joy to Ava. Yet, Sheridan was persistently reminded that Ava’s time was limited to just six months. Still, she adhered to her daily heart medication routine.
As the months flew by, Sheridan was astonished to observe that Ava appeared healthier than ever. Three years down the line, she is still thriving!
“She is now six, and they never anticipated she’d live this long. I hope her story inspires others to recognize that many animals like her are overlooked. They all just desire loving homes,” Sheridan concluded.
Ava has been leading a profoundly joyful life since her rescue.
She loves racing along the beach with her furry siblings and is the most nurturing nanny to all of the foster pups who come her way.
May her story serve as a reminder that there is always hope because brighter days are on the horizon!
