There are countless puppies worldwide that perish daily due to the harsh conditions they face. Abandoned on the streets, they struggle to find a forever home or even a safe shelter.
Mila, a female street puppy, was one of these unfortunate souls. She was severely anemic and too weak to stand. Her fate seemed sealed until a compassionate man intervened, deciding that today would not be her last.

Mila was in a dire state, severely malnourished, sick, and traumatized. Despite her fear of humans, she lacked the strength to flee and surrendered to Esdras, not realizing he would offer her the first kind touch she had ever experienced.

In such a terrible condition, Mila had a long journey ahead to rebuild her trust in humans. When she first entered her new safe house, she was very shy and subdued, but her sweet nature and desire for affection were clear.
Esdras bathed her, likely for the first time in her life, removing her dirty coat.

Surprisingly, Mila didn’t resist the bath; instead, she seemed relieved and relaxed, perhaps for the first time in a long while.
“Mila is feeling much better. For the first time she was bathed, the shower gel made her skin so much softer and scented. The friendliness and gentleness are what we feel from Mila.”
