This story begins in 2017.
At that time, someone was on a railway track in Romania.
A puppy covered in blood was found.
Its name is Bonnie
It's a Border Collie mix.
Its nose had been cut off when it was found.
Forelimb severed
Even the tail was missing a piece.
Bonnie was rescued
They were sent to a shelter in the UK.
At first, everyone thought Bonnie's injury was...
It was caused by being run over by a train.
However, after the veterinarian's examination, he said:
Its injury was definitely caused by someone!
turn out to be
In some parts of Romania
Some traditional ideas are still retained.
It is said that the dog's nose was burned.
It can enhance their immunity
Thus becoming a better watchdog
But it's all just speculation.
The murderer could not be found.
The doctor said
Bonnie is not in mortal danger.
However, her appearance can no longer be restored.
We can only try our best to alleviate its pain.
volunteers at the shelter
Seeing Bonnie made me feel very sorry and distressed.
Because the shelter has a large number of dogs waiting to be adopted.
Bonnie's appearance is not pleasing.
Getting adopted is even more difficult.
The volunteers said sadly
Ultimately, Bonnie's fate will most likely be euthanasia...
But Bonnie's fate shouldn't end there.
Just before it was added to the euthanasia list
A netizen named Kate called.
She said she was willing to adopt Bonnie!
that's all
Kate successfully brought Bonnie home.
She said
When she saw Bonnie online
I just thought it was a very cute dog.
After taking Bonnie home
She then discussed it with her husband.
Should Bonnie get a prosthetic leg?
Kate later raised funds through crowdfunding.
Finally, the money for Bonnie's prosthetic limb has been raised.
But after being fitted with a prosthesis
Its wounds continued to worsen
In the end, they had no choice but to give up...
Kate said
They originally wanted to give Bonnie plastic surgery.
The veterinarian will remove some of its teeth.
Then, after skin resurfacing, a plastic nose was fitted.
But the veterinarian said
Fitted with a prosthetic limb and a fake nose
It's just that it looks better.
For Bonnie
It has no real use.
It may also make it uncomfortable.
Considering the risks of surgery
In the end, Kate decided against surgery for Bonnie.
Bonnie's lack of forelimbs doesn't really matter.
As long as it's healthy, that's all that matters.
Actually, besides Bonnie, Kate's family...
There are three other dogs.
So initially Kate's husband said
Once Bonnie recovers, we will find her an adoptive family.
But now Bonnie is with her family.
They have developed very deep feelings for each other.
So they decided to keep Bonnie with them forever.
Kate also created a personal page for Bonnie.
Record its daily life
It gets along very well with the three dogs in the family.
Sunbathing together in the backyard
Let's play in the water
Sleeping together
Let's go for a walk
Kate said
Although every time I go out
People are pointing fingers at Bonnie.
But Kate didn't mind.
Because she knew Bonnie was a very well-behaved dog.
Anyone who has come into contact with it
You will feel its goodness.
And you see
Bonnie waiting for snacks
How adorable!
Bonnie is now four years old.
It has grown a lot
Playing on the lawn with Dad
It became its happiest thing
Kate said
She and her husband didn't care about Bonnie's appearance.
I just hope it lasts for the rest of its days
Happiness and joy in life
See here
I'm really happy for Bonnie.
What I experienced in my childhood is no longer important.
The important thing is that it encountered an angel.
And they will be happy for life.
Best wishes to Bonnie and her family
I believe that kind people will be rewarded.
May you live a peaceful and joyful life!
