Last week, when temperatures dropped below freezing, a pit bull mix named Emmy found herself outside and alone. Abandoned by her family in Ecorse, Michigan, during a snowstorm, the frightened senior dog had no choice but to curl up in a ball to stay warm and hope someone would find her.

Fortunately, rescuers spotted Emmy just as a thin layer of snow settled on her fur. Emmy, an 8-9 year old female, was 25 pounds lighter than normal, had dental problems, and was covered in fleas. Thanks to POET Animal Rescue for saving this girl. She is being transported to an emergency vet in Ann Arbor.

You will never be cold or hungry again, sweet girl! Emmy is enjoying her Christmas morning at her foster home. Last night he received a bath, changed into his pajamas and slept in bed with his host family. She didn’t move an inch the whole night, she probably thought she was dreaming and was afraid to wake up… but this is your new life, sweet girl!

Thank you all for supporting Emmy! Your journey is just beginning and you still have a long way to go to recover and be well. Day 4: He’s been here for 4 days and is already taking control of this place. Day 6: We find out that Emmy is a squirrel girl! Day 8: Never again, Emmy, girl. From now on they will treat you like the queen you are! Day 12: Emmy is still thin, but she is gaining weight and following the eating program. His blood tests are improving too! Emma got some new medicine for her bumps and is feeling more playful. Emmy deserves a happy life forever!
