ʙʟɪɴᴅ Dog Who Can’t Stop sʜᴀᴋɪɴɢ Finally Finds Forever Home With Loving Family
A partially ʙʟɪɴᴅ dog with a ᴛʀᴇᴍᴏʀ finally found her happy ending thanks to the Manchester sᴀɴᴄᴛᴜᴀʀʏ that gave her a chance of real happiness.
A partially ʙʟɪɴᴅ dog who can’t stop sʜᴀᴋɪɴɢ has finally found a forever family to spend the rest of her life with. The Romanian ʀᴇsᴄᴜᴇ dog had a ᴅᴇᴠᴀsᴛᴀᴛɪɴɢ ᴠɪʀᴜs ɴᴀᴍᴇᴅ ᴅɪsᴛᴇᴍᴘᴇʀ, which “she Fᴏᴜɢʜᴛ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴀʟʟ ʜᴇʀ ᴍɪɢʜᴛ ᴛᴏ sᴜʀᴠɪᴠᴇ” but left her with a ᴘᴇʀᴍᴀɴᴇɴᴛ ᴛʀᴇᴍᴏʀ.
An “angel lady” in Romania “nursed her back to health and taught her how to trust”, before transporting her to a Manchester dog sᴀɴᴄᴛᴜᴀʀʏ. The Dogs 4 Ʀᴇsᴄᴜᴇ team took Damaris into their care in October, and after just three days, she was scooped up for adoption where she “fitted in right away” with her new family.
On Monday, Dogs 4 Ʀᴇsᴄᴜᴇ shared the amazing news on their Facebook page in a touching post that read: “We know you’ll all be thrilled with this happy ending. Damaris has been adopted into a forever home. We chose to ʀᴇsᴄᴜᴇ Damaris as she was a dog no-one else wanted. She had suffered distemper as a pup, a highly a which she Fᴏᴜɢʜᴛ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴀʟʟ ʜᴇʀ ᴍɪɢʜᴛ ᴛᴏ sᴜʀᴠɪᴠᴇ.”
“It left her ʙʟɪɴᴅ in one eye and with a ᴘᴇʀᴍᴀɴᴇɴᴛ ᴛʀᴇᴍᴏʀ which made her a little different. But we thought she was perfect and wanted to give this fighter a chance of real happiness. She arrived from Romania on the happy bus in October. She was such a gentle girl. We thought she may be with us a while in order to build her trust, but she was one of the ones that surprised us, and went on to foster within a few days and settled in brilliantly. At the end of October, she went to live with Louise, her family and new fur brother Jerry, for her trial which we’re so pleased to announce has now become her forever home.”
Damaris’ new adopted owner Louise said: “Thank you so much for letting us home Damaris. It’s safe to say we all fell in love with her straight away. She’s hilarious and fiesty and doesn’t let anything hold her back – she’s definitely the boss of the house! She’s fitted in right away. If she’s not sleeping she’s playing with Jerry or telling him off when he snores. When I saw her photo my heart melted and I knew I would do anything I could to give her a good life. ʙʀᴏᴜɢʜᴛ ᴀ ᴛᴇᴀʀ make her even more special to us. Thank you to Emma for trusting us with her and also her ʀᴇsᴄᴜᴇr who originally saved her for making this possible.”
