As an animal lover will tell you, there’s nothing sadder than a tiny puppy that is dealt a hard hand and left to starve to death. This sweet little seven-month pitbull puppy – now named Blossom – was found wandering streets and trying to find food. Brought to a local animal shelter so that she would be taken care of, the employees were surprised to see that her spirit was still entirely intact, and she didn’t fear those who kept her there. She was carefully fed and her skin condition was treated so that she eventually started to resemble a normal puppy who had been happy her whole life. Blossom is now staying with an employee while they work to make sure that she fully recovers and enjoys her puppy life.
She greeted the vet team with a wagging tail and plenty of smooches.
But behind those sweet eyes was a seriously malnourished pup.
She was also suffering from Demodex mites which caused skin lesions.
They treated and carefully monitored her over the next few weeks.
It was important to make sure she didn’t get overeager with her food and cause more issues.
And soon she was up 12 lbs and skin lesion-free!
