Eden has always been a gentle spirit. When she was sleeping under a tree as a stray dog and Good Samaritans stopped by to leave her food, she would always greet them with a subtle tail wag.
Now that Eden is waiting for a forever home in an animal shelter, she cannot help but reach her paw through her cage to hold hands with everyone who walks by.
People visited Eden and left food under the tree for her, but nobody came to her rescue. So, as soon as Hall heard about a sweet dog in need of a home, she wasted no time in scooping her up.
Suzette Hall, founder of Logan’s Legacy dog rescue, is notsure exactly what caused Eden to start living under the tree in Southern California. However, when the rescuer arrived to save her, she could tell she had been there a long time. Eden perked up as soon as she saw Hall.
“She knew she was getting help,” Hall said. “She knew it was her time to stop living under the tree.”
Hall brought Eden to the vet, where her new friends gave her a much-needed bath. The team soon realized that the dog had a painful skin condition and was severely underweight, so they began treating her right away. Before long, her personality started to blossom.
“She is the sweetest dog you could ever meet,” Hall said.
The vet team placed Eden in her own kennel, where she could rest and recover. At first, Eden spent the majority of her time curled up on her bed. They would grab Eden’s paw and gave it a loving squeeze and she would do nothing. But one day, someone at the hospital walked past her kennel and saw a single grey and white paw sticking through the bars. When anyone passes by, Eden will go on with sticking her little paw through the bars in search of unconditional love as if wanting to say “thank you for noticing me”.
