It must have so uncomfortable for her - itching, burning, but it was your perseverance that got her the specialist she needed to figure it out.

      Doing fostering, you keep a bit of distance. I've done it, and there's dogs I miss that I adopted, but I got two wonderful dogs which I did keep. The purpose is to show them a good life and there is a lot of reward in that alone. The most troubled dogs, I had to work with for a long time, and as a result, those are the ones I kept. The ones that were fragile.

      From the apparent severity of her Lupus, I wouldn’t be surprised if that scar was from that… all that time that she’d been suffering from the condition but nobody knowing what was causing it… very *VERY* likely that she was scratching or aggressively pawing at that spot particularly often due to the scabbing and irritation
      With that part finally known, the part that has me the most bothered was the complete lack of muscle development in her legs… it reeks of being caged up in a kennel almost the entire day every day for months or even years… it’s about the only thing I can think of that could cause it, but physical therapy/exercise finally took care of that too

    There are rescues…and then there are RESCUES! This has touched my heart beyond words. I worked at a rural humane society many decades ago. Have seen, fwatched & heard of so many sad & awful stories (& of course they all are 🥺). Something about this gal & her “savior” that has squeezed my heartstrings in the biggest way. I’m soon to be 80… you think you’ve seen it all. What in Holy Heaven’s name could cause a human being to allow a little innocent pup to be this neglected 💔. My prayer is that people like that are dealt with severely here on earth…and there, in the hereafter…❤️‍🔥

    When you said you were keeping her, that made me cry. You're amazing and are doing such great work with Nova and other dogs like her.

    I'm so happy for Nova and you. I got emotional because I wouldn't know what to do if I'd had a dog who'd been this ill. Thank you, so much. 🌺💞

      Right? I’m so tired of the stories where it appears as though the animal and the person have bonded, and they’ve healed the animal, and then the next thing you know - “…we knew Bella was ready to find a forever home” or something - uhhm… you mean your home wasn’t it? Oh, it’s a rescuer sharing their story. Well that’s kinda bittersweet. Then the animal has to be heartbroken AGAIN in their life, you know? Even if they do end up finding a loving home, it appears initially as though the rescuers are the loving home. I guess not… So yeah, props to this guy for rescuing and adopting.

      ​@@erikm8372 that's why I could never be a foster. I'd fall in love with them and then before you know it I'd have too many pups lol! I follow a lot of rescues and they claim they foster so they make room for more in need. No way I'm just too soft hearted when it comes to dogs. I don't think I could ever volunteer to walk them & cleanup,I'd want to take them all home with me!

    My heart broke when I saw the condition this angel was in!!! 😭💔 Thankfully someone called you to save her!!! 🖒 You could see beyond what she looked like that she wanted to live!!! 🤗🐶💕 You and Nova worked so hard together to get her well!!! It was wonderful to find out what was wrong and treatment could begin!!! 😊💖 She was beautiful anyway but her skin clearing up and the hair growing in just enhanced that beauty!!! 🐶💕 When you said you had a big announcement I was crying harder than I was anyway!!! 😭 I knew you were keeping her!!!😊💖 You could see the bond between the both of you growing stronger as the video progressed!!! 🖒 I pray you have many wonderful years of love and happiness together!!! 🙏💕 Welcome home Nova!!!! 🏡🐶💕

    Could tell it was an emotional journey for both of you. The vet used to tell me dogs live for their owners. Love the happy ending and that you adopted her. For a moment i thought she was going back to a shelter. Truly a great video that teaches us that love and compassion can be miraculous.😊😊

    What a beautiful rescue story. I give that gentleman and his fundraising group for rescue dogs all the credit and respect they deserve. What good people. The man in the video helped bring that gorgeous girl, Nova, back to life. Thank God for people like them. We should all be more like them. Animals are such beautiful souls. They’re all so worth saving and a gift for us to love and care for them. ❤
