It breaks my heart to imagine that some dogs experience pain that no animal should ever have to face. They feel forgotten as they wait for someone to notice them. They long for love and a place to call home.
Mowgli endured neglect in the hands of her previous family. She was found tied outside a shelter, shivering with fear. When Jane saw her photo, she felt an instant pull.
Having recently lost her own dog, Jane wanted to give all her love to another dog.
She brought Mowgli home, but then something unexpected happened.
A Rough Start
Mowgli was left tied outside a shelter in Utah. She was a neglected puppy who had already been through a lot. When Jane first met her, she weighed only 12 pounds.
When Jane saw how weak the pup was, she was heartbroken.
Jane had just lost her beloved dog and hoped Mowgli could help her fill that painful void. But only days after bringing her home, Mowgli’s health began to decline.
After moving in with Jane, Mowgli started losing her fur rapidly, and no one seemed to know why. Jane tried everything. She took her on multiple vet visits, tried new diets, and gave her endless care but Mowgli only grew worse.
Watching her new pup continue to suffer left Jane terrified. She felt helpless and didn’t know how to help her. She was afraid that she might lose the little dog who had already become such an important part of her life.
The Road To Healing And Bonding
Jane refused to give up. She pampered Mowgli with care and showered her with love.
Fortunately, the pup began to recover. Her fur slowly started growing back, her strength returned, and her spark began to emerge.
“She’s just such a happy go lucky girl,” Jane told GeoBeats Animals.
Mowgli made a remarkable transformation. She is a strong, lively 47-pound dog who loves long morning walks with her mom. She uses every opportunity to be close to Jane.
Every night, she curls up beside her, pressing her head against Jane, showing her just how much she loves her.
“Every night she loves to get as close as she can and just like she’ll, she loves to like lay her head on my chest, which I still can’t get over,” Jane said.
Those moments show just how deep their bond has grown.
Jane adores Mowgli and credits her for saving her life. The pup helped her go through the stressful period in her life.
“I tell her how much she saved me and how much I love her. She’s my girl, my best friend,” she said.
Mowgli came into Jane’s life when her heart was broken. By helping Mowgli heal, Jane found comfort too. After finding each other, their lives changed for the better and they couldn’t be happier.
