Every rescue dog has its own story, but Minky's is truly extraordinary. In August, this female Miniature Dachshund was found locked in a mink trap, abandoned in the heart of a forest. Her new owner, Cat, suspects the little dog was dumped because of her slightly misaligned jaw.
Terrified and vulnerable due to her tiny size, Minky did exactly the right thing and barked as loudly as she could. Hearing her distant cries, Cat approached the cage and immediately decided to get her out of there.
A spectacular transformation thanks to care
When she was first freed, the little Dachshund was terrified and tried to nip her rescuer in self-defence. But Minky quickly realised Cat meant no harm and calmed down. After a warm bubble bath to wash away the grime and a full check-up at the vet, the little dog was ready to head to her new home.
"It is shocking that someone abandoned her like that! At least she will have a wonderful home now," commented one viewer under the rescue video.
A brand new start
By her second day with her new family, Minky wagged her tail for the very first time. As the days go by, the little dog is growing in confidence and discovering the comfort of family life with her owner, from whom she is now inseparable.
