Her past is shrouded in darkness. But everything we see is evidence of severe abuse and neglect.
Khalessi’s face is terribly disfigured. A successful adoption does not seem to be in sight for the time being.
But the dog girl refuses to give in and proves with her fighting spirit and unbroken joy that all beings deserve a loving hand.
„A very unique dog“
Emaciated, no nasal cavities, missing part of her upper jaw, back, ribs and hind legs damaged so that she can barely walk… The list of Khalessi’s ailments is long.
With her deformed teeth, the dog is really not a pretty sight. Her fellow dogs at the Orange County Animal Shelter are scheduled to be picked up, but it looks like Khalessi will be left behind.
Stephanie Paquin, founder and director of „Passion 4 Pits“, and her husband Mike Fleury, are on a mission to take in stranded animals.
That’s when the shelter manager asks if they would like to take in a „very unique dog“.
Old spirit, new face
Despite the manager’s warning, Stephanie gets a bit of a shock when she sees Khaleesi for the first time.
However, the woman is equally surprised by the dog’s unbroken fighting and survival spirit. Despite her mistreatment, she never stops wagging her tail.
Her nature is cheerful and friendly, as if she has had a completely normal dog’s life.
Fortunately, in Stephanie and Mike’s hands she now finds loving gestures and the care and attention she deserves.
At the moment, she still has a few surgical procedures ahead of her to restore her appearance. Until then, a possible adoption is on hold for now.
With a new outward appearance, always accompanied by her cheerful character, it will certainly not be difficult for this lovely dog to find a new home with sensitive foster parents in the future.
