🌸 Meet Arden — From Barely Surviving to Her First Walk 🌸
This is Arden, a 9-year-old mama who’s learning that life doesn’t have to hurt.
Just weeks ago, she was rescued after giving birth to 8 puppies. She was found in critical condition with infected wounds that required emergency surgery and days of intensive hospital care. Her babies were bottle-fed around the clock while she fought to recover.
She’s met other animals in her foster home, including the cat who has appointed himself the official welcome committee for every new foster, along with 3 other dogs. She’s figured out that couches are for sleeping on (not just looking at), and is slowly realizing that gentle hands mean good things.
Her healing journey isn’t finished, but she’s already showing us who she really is: resilient, trusting, and ready for more.
If you’re looking for a dog who knows what matters and won’t take a single good day for granted — she might be your girl. 💕
