This is Reina Christina on the day she arrived at El Refugio. She was found lying in a heap near the cat's house, up the hill, unable to take another step. By some instinct she knew she's be safe with us, but she was so weak, so thin, so hopeless she couldn't make it. The poor thing had completely give up. In other circumstances, in another place, she might have been put to sleep.
Not here ... every dog gets a chance ... just look!
This is the beautiful girl now. Unbelievable isn't it. Her coat is sleek and smooth, her lovely body has filled out, no more sticking out ribs. The marks the cord made round her neck have gone and instead of that filthy rope she has a soft leather collar. As she deserves.
When she rescued her Fabienne said 'it doesn't take much imagination to see what a beautiful dog she will become once she's put on weight and her soul has time to recover. With love.' And that she has in abundance, her new family love her to pieces. Thanks to them and to Fabienne and all at El Refugio she has indeed regained her soul.
You can see what good food and love can do !!
