From Broken to Brave: Injured Dog Anya Fights for Her Life and Her Puppies
She was skin and bones, rummaging through trash just to survive. But it wasn’t hunger that consumed her—it was fear.
When rescuers found Anya in an industrial area in Anand, India, she was badly hurt, missing an eye, and suffering from a severe skin infection.
Despite her pain, she had only one concern: her puppies.
The team from RRSA India first secured the pups, placing them in a safe shelter. But when they came back for Anya, she was terrified and confused.
Her mind seemed fixed on her babies, and she refused food, her eyes searching desperately for them.
Even with her injuries, she resisted rescue. She didn’t want to leave without knowing her puppies were okay.
Eventually, the team managed to bring her in, reuniting her with her pups at the RRSA Animal Shelter. That moment of relief marked the start of her healing.
Once reunited, Anya began to eat again—a small but powerful step. Her condition was critical, so she was stabilized with IV fluids and then prepared for surgery.
The damaged eye was safely removed, and she began a strict treatment routine with medication, nutritious food, and round-the-clock care.
Day by day, Anya grew stronger. The wounds on her body started to heal, and her spirit slowly returned.
Her connection with her puppies never wavered—they gave her strength, and she gave them comfort.
By the seventh day, her transformation was already visible. The neck wounds had closed up, her stitches were removed, and she began to trust again.
Anya had been through unthinkable pain, but her resilience never faded.
Her journey from the harsh streets to safety was more than just a physical recovery—it was a story of hope, love, and a second chance for a mother who refused to give up.
