Two-year-old Dolly was rescued from the streets in a heartbreaking condition, with her bones visibly protruding through her frail body.‌The medium-sized crossbreed, who weighs around 22kg, is currently in Greece but is searching for a loving home in the UK where she can finally experience safety and care.‌A rescue worker from Greek Stray ResQ said: “She was found in a heartbreaking state - weak, emaciated, and unable to use her back legs. But she didn’t give up. Today, Dolly has successfully completed her treatment for Leishmaniasis - and she’s standing, walking, and ready for a second chance at life.‌“From a fragile, suffering dog to a strong, hopeful girl who just wants a home. Now she faces a new fear: returning to the streets. And after everything she’s been through, she deserves so much more.”While rescue workers are still unsure how Dolly would behave around other dogs or cats, they believe she would likely do well with children as long as introductions are calm and gentle.‌The rescue added that she would be “perfect for someone kind and committed, who understands that love and stability can change a dog’s entire world”.Her story has already touched many people online. Commenting on her rehoming appeal, one Facebook user wrote: “A transformation of love and prayer - now share to find a forever home!”Another added: “Poor mite. Can’t imagine what she’s been through.
