Man rescued a Dσg in the desert and couldn't stop crying when he saw her a year later
Matt Bentley was
off-roading in the West Desert near the Salt Flats in Utah in January 2018. He
saw something running down the trail, according to ilovemydogsomuch.
At first, he didn’t even know
what it was because of how rough it looked. As he got closer, though, he saw
that it was a dog. The dog was in such bad shape. It had no hair and wasn’t
getting enough food.
Bentley knew right away that he
couldn’t leave her. He took her right away to the Utah Adoption Animal Clinic.
There they gave her the care she needed so badly. Even though this puppyhad
been through a lot, she was still very friendly and affectionate with people.
Her name is now Kelly.
After three months of getting
good vet care and much-needed love and attention, it was time for her to find a
forever home. Not long after that, Kelly was taken in by Jamie Jacques and her
family. Kelly got used to her new home pretty quickly, and she even has a dog
named Rocky who is older than her. They get along great and can’t live without
each other.
If you saw Kelly now, you would
never guess that she used to be that hairless dog running through the desert.
Jamie and her family will always be thankful that Bentley brought her to safety
and got her the medical care she needed to save her life.
“Knowing that she’s come full circle and is in the condition she is now is like a fairy tale ending to the story.” Bentley said.
