A dog named Elsie was rescued from the streets of Tijuana, Mexico. She was emaciated and pregnant. The California-based rescue group worked tirelessly to find Elsie the perfect forever home… and they did with Sandrine and her husband, but it wasn’t an easy feat.

Sandrine wanted to adopt a dog for a long time but her husband wasn’t really rosy on the idea. He eventually gave in and met a few dogs his wife liked but didn’t feel a connection. However, when he met Elsie, the bond was instant and he fell madly in love with her.

Elsie is quite the warrior! When she came home with her new parents, they took her to the vet. She had an old fracture that was so severe the doctor was amazed she was able to walk. Her teeth were in bad shape and hurt her. She couldn’t even play with toys.

But with the right treatment, the doggy warrior pulled through and is now able to live life to the fullest! She is thriving with her family and we couldn’t be more grateful. There are many animals like Elsie who are looking for their happily ever after. Please consider opening your home, and your heart, to a pet in need!
