On a hot day in August, a woman spotted a small, hairless animal dodging traffic on a busy road in Iberville Parish, Louisiana.
It was a puppy, covered in wounds and emaciated, and the woman stopped to help, knowing that the pup wouldn’t last much longer without some sort of intervention. She swept up the scared little Dog, and the puppy made its way to Iberville Parish Shelter & Animal Control.
No one knew what was in store for the Dog, or how far she would go — both in her health journey and literal miles.
Dubbed “Dobby,” the sweet girl was a pit bull terrier mix of some sort who had demodectic mange, according to People.
On Aug. 12, Dobby was in the care of a foster, and the director of the animal control, Alison Alvarado, said the Dog’s relief was immediate.

“You could see it all over her cute, hairless face,” Alvarado said, according to Clear the Shelters
