Although shelter employees see a large number of dogs during their work, each shelter with at least one dog stands out from the others.

Matilda was a beautiful puppy who was welcomed to the Douglas County Animal Shelter. The staff at the shelter immediately realized that Matilda had an unfamiliar situation because she was usually cheerful and anxious. Matilda was adopted immediately upon arrival at the shelter.

When you consider that the first few months of Matilda’s life were incredibly difficult, this was a big surprise for the doctors there.

When the shelter discovered the two-month-old puppy, she had skin irritation and was infected with worms. She has been a stray dog on the streets of Georgia since she was born.

However, despite all those obstacles, she did not lose her cheerful personality and continued to wag her tail at all times.
