by Bali Paws’ rescue workers have saved many abused animals, and watching the adorable canines thrive in their new permanent homes makes all of their efforts worthwhile!
One day, one of their team members discovered a little hairless pup. She’d been abandoned and was hiding in a dog house in front of a property. Despite their expertise, her rescuers were taken aback by her state.
The child was suffering from a severe case of mange, which had left her bald and in pain. She was also suffering from an infection in one of her eyes.
Desi, a rescue worker, stated that the poor girl had spent her entire life in a cage while being used for breeding. Her captors abandoned her on the street once she “wasn’t cute and healthy anymore.” Desi, on the other hand, was able to entice her out of hiding and immediately began lavishing her with all the love and attention she desired.
“She was super calm the moment I grabbed her,” Desi explained. “I believe she knew I wouldn’t hurt her.”
They christened the dog Lucy Ray, and once her physical issues were resolved, her true personality surfaced! Her rescuers described her as “extremely sweet” and “always wanted to cuddle.”
She became healthier and gained weight over the next seven weeks. She also became acquainted with other dogs, learned to walk on grass, and experienced her first taste of a loving home.
This was all good preparation, since Bali Paws quickly found her a lovely forever home in Centreville, Virginia, all the way across the world!
The moment Matt and Brianna saw Lucy Ray’s images and heard her tale, they knew she had to be in their lives. They were head over heals in love as soon as the small dog came!
“We were both madly in love with her,” Brianna explained. “She was just so adorable, and we felt like she simply bonded to our hearts right away and pretended to be ours.”
Lucy Ray is now one of the most spoiled dogs in the world! According to her Instagram, she “moved from Bali streets to silky sheets,” and she couldn’t be happier!
“She definitely shows us how much she loves and appreciates us, and we reciprocate because we love her more than anything,” Matt said.
Brianna stated that they are constantly amazed by their pet’s ability to forgive and move on from her traumatic beginnings in life. “I think it’s miraculous that she’s so sweet, loving, and trusting of us after everything she’s been through.”
What a satisfying conclusion! Thank you to everyone who helped make this fur family a reality!
