Abused dog finds forever home

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – Paws 4 the Cause is celebrating a fairy tale adoption story.

According to the rescue organization, when Bella came to the shelter in June she had a bad case of mange, little to no hair in some areas, her eyes were swollen shut from a skin infection, and she has some scars all over her body.

However, today she’s physically healed and home with her new forever family.

It gets even better. Paws 4 the Cause says the dad works for Disney and plans to take Bella on the road with the cast of the Lion King.

“Some of these dogs that we adopt out that come from horrible situations they end up having these really great happy endings and it makes our job so fulfilling,” says Anita Spreitzer, rescue cooridinator for Paws 4 the Cause.

Spreitzer says donations are down during the pandemic, and they need help caring for dogs like Bella.
