It’s particularly heartless to abandon dogs that have been loyal companions for years and not even make an effort to find them a new home.
What’s even more distressing is when owners leave their dogs behind without any provisions, leaving them to fend for themselves. It’s a tragic situation that shouldn’t be tolerated.
In this story, we’ll discuss a sweet dog who was abandoned by her owners after they moved out of their house.
She Is So Timid

After being abandoned by her owners, Lacy struggled to survive on her own. Fortunately, a group of rescuers found her and gave her a second chance after this cruel act.
However, the trauma of abandonment lingered. Lacy was incredibly sad and fearful of people, unsure of how to interact with them.
The rescuers took her to a shelter where she received food, water, and a routine checkup to address any health concerns.

They discovered that she had heartworms and was likely catching a cold, but these were challenges they could manage.
What surprised them most was how closed-off she was to any human interaction. She seemed constantly tired and depressed, indicating that her previous home was not a happy one, and it would take time for her to trust again.
Although it was heartbreaking to witness her struggles at such a young age, she is now safe and receiving care from compassionate individuals.
Lacy’s Incredible Progress

Lacy was placed in foster care, where she could learn that she is safe and begin to relax around new people.
In foster care, she started wagging her tail, a positive sign that her mood was improving and she was regaining trust in humans. She began exploring beyond her safe space, showing increased comfort.

After three weeks, her mood improved significantly, and she greeted her foster parents with happiness. Her little tail wags were heartwarming.
However, this was just the beginning of her journey. It was time for Lacy to embark on a new chapter in her life.
This involved being placed on an adoption list to find her forever home. While we don’t know the outcome yet, her foster parents will ensure she finds the right family.
I have no doubt that she is now enjoying her time with someone special and has learned to overcome her fear of meeting new people.
