Let’s Adopt founder Viktor Larkhill rescued Angel. The dog was in a horrific condition when he found him. He lost a lot of his hair and suffered from a painful eye infection.
Instantly, Viktor decided to help Angel. He gently scooped him and loaded the dog into his car. And then, he drove straight to the animal hospital, where Angel received immediate medical care.
The vets performed several tests and determined Angel had Leishmaniasis, a skin condition caused by a parasite that’s usually transmitted by sandflies. He constantly itched, so the vets immediately started him on IV fluids, antibiotics, and other specialty drugs. Likewise, they treated him for his eye infection.
The prognosis for the said disease isn’t always favorable. Dogs that are severely ill can die because of liver failure. Hence, Angel required an extra amount of care.
While he consistently showed signs of improvement, Angel needed more time to heal. His rescue friends made sure to always keep an eye on him, watching his vitals all the time. But most importantly, they showed him love and affection every chance they get.
After four straight months of treatment, Angel’s fur started to grow. His raw skin healed, and his shiny black coat covered his entire body. His eye infection also cleared, and his eyesight was finally restored.
Soon, Let’s Adopt put Angel up for adoption. Families from Europe, the United States, and Germany offered to provide Angel a loving home. But after careful consideration, Viktor and his team found the best family in Madrid, Spain.
Viktor and Angel went on a 3-hour drive to Madrid. The moment the pup met his new parents, he fell in love with them, and they felt the same way. They loved his shiny black hair and adored his gentle spirit.
Angel explored his new home right away. He sniffed every corner of the house and made himself comfortable on the couch. Angel knew he’s finally home.
