In the midst of a harsh winter, a compassionate woman visited a shelter only to find it in deplorable conditions. Distraught by what she saw, she resolved to change the fate of a small canine family she discovered huddled together in a corner, shivering from the cold. The mother dog, visibly distressed and unable to provide for her three puppies, evoked a deep sense of urgency in the woman. Compelled to act, she swiftly gathered the puppies and their mother and escorted them to her car for a trip to the vet.

At the clinic, the family underwent thorough examinations. While the tests revealed that the mother dog was suffering from anaplasmosis, a treatable tick-borne disease, there were no other serious health issues. With treatment expected to last only a few weeks, the future looked promising.

The woman took the dog family to her home, providing a warm bed and nourishment, essential comforts they had long been denied. As their health improved, she named the mother dog GeumSoon and her puppies Circle, Red, and Green. The puppies, only a month old, thrived under her care, their playful energy filling the home with joy. However, Geumsoon remained hesitant to eat in the presence of humans, a behavior likely rooted in her traumatic past and previous shelter life.

With patience and affection from her rescuer, GeumSoon gradually began to overcome her apprehensions. As the puppies grew and eventually found their forever homes, GeumSoon showed signs of recovery, finally comfortable in her surroundings. This transformation filled her rescuer with immense joy, marking a victorious end to a journey that began in despair.
