Clémentine’s Problems at the Shelter

Clémentine, found on the streets of Southern California, was placed in a shelter. However, she remained depressed and withdrawn, avoiding nearly all contact with people.

Her condition worsened due to several illnesses, and the shelter staff believed she would be impossible to adopt. While other dogs found new families, Clémentine stayed in her cage, gradually losing hope.

The Threat of Euthanasia

Over time, her fears intensified, and she was put on the euthanasia list. Only two days remained before this when something unexpected happened — a woman stepped forward to adopt Clémentine.

Elizabeth’s Rescue

Elizabeth Cossart saw the dog’s picture on the shelter’s website. Her heart broke at the sight of Clémentine’s sad, empty gaze and hunched posture. She felt she had to save this dog and brought her home without hesitation.

Clémentine’s New Life

Elizabeth brought Clémentine home and introduced her to her other dogs, Moose and Maple. This marked the beginning of a new, happy phase in Clémentine’s life, transforming her to the point of being unrecognizable.

Thus, thanks to care and love, this dog, once thought lost, regained hope and a chance for a happy life.
