When Officer Jesien found Robin last October, he was a shadow of the dog he could be—emaciated, terrified, and wandering the streets alone. Robin was brought to the shelter, where our incredible veterinary team sprang into action to save him. Robin’s condition was heartbreaking. He was skin and bones, battling an uncomfortable ear infection, and his scabby, painful skin was bleeding. His physical wounds were matched by emotional scars—Robin was fearful and distrusting, a result of his former life. Even after settling into his kennel, he stayed guarded and shut down. And who could blame him? But our team knew what Robin needed most: a little time, patience, and a LOT love. Slowly but surely, with consistent care and compassion, Robin began to transform before our eyes. Today, Robin is a completely different dog! He’s a vibrant, energetic, and happy boy who has blossomed into the handsome, healthy meatball he was always meant to be. He loves food and catches treats in his mouth with the joy of a dog who has finally discovered how wonderful life can be. Now, all Robin needs is a forever family to love him as much as we do. He’s ready to share his heart and his newfound zest for life with someone who will cherish him. Could you be the one to give Robin the happy ending he deserves?
