A dog named Eliza June was thrown out on the road by her owners, which tragically led to her getting hit by a car.
By the time a rescue found her, Eliza June was confused, shaking and crying from the terrifying trauma. While she survived the ordeal, the shelter had a hard time dealing with her mental scars and labeled her as “very aggressive”.
A woman named Annie Morgan volunteered for the uphill task of fostering Eliza. The poor pooch was suffering from a broken pelvis, fractured hip and a bruised lung, but it was her emotional wounds that manifested into unmanageable behavioral issues.
Eliza had developed a staggering phobia of human touch, and would shudder at the sight of a leash or a collar. During her early days in foster care, she took her time to warm up to Annie. Eliza ran to a corner and shut herself down, like she was expecting Annie to hurt her.
Eliza’s hunched fear-dominant body language was harrowing for Annie to witness, but she grew even more resolved to fix the baby’s brokenness. This video provides a heart-rending insight into the way Eliza patches up her tattered soul after finding a safe haven with Annie.
Eliza has not only blossomed into the kindest sweetheart, but has also managed to replace “foster” with “forever”! We are so proud of her and Annie!
