The furry and dirty dog miraculously changed to a lovely nice pet
The story of baby Ellie Mae’s rescue is truly amazing. It all started with the fact that a terribly dirty shaggy creature was delivered to the veterinary clinic, as she couldn’t move at all. At first glance, it was not even clear to the veterinarians what kind of animal was in front of them. After a thorough examination, the experts realized that it was a dog, but it was impossible to check her properly without a haircut.
Ellie Mae’s past turned out to be rather sad. The owner of the dog was a lonely old woman. After the woman died, her apartment was closed for a long time. Apparently, the relatives of the lady didn’t know that she had a pet and simply didn’t notice Ellie Mae, who was hiding somewhere.
How the unfortunate abandoned animal survived for several months also remained a mystery. When Ellie Mae was discovered, her claws and matted hair had grown so large that they completely didn’t allow any movement.
Veterinarians and groomers jointly acted to save the animal. It took several hours of work to remove all the huge mass of matted wool. And after a hard process it turned out that it had as much as 5 kg of wool, with its own weight of 4 kg!
Ellie Mae changed to an adorable little Shih Tzu. The grateful glance of her brilliant little eyes moved the entire staff almost to tears.
The baby still had to be treated for exhaustion and infections, but she proved to be a real fighter.
