4-Pound Puppy Once Bald And Covered In Sores Now Shines With The Most Beautiful Fur
This little puppy’s life started off in the worst way—alone, hairless, and covered in painful sores.
But just when things seemed hopeless, kind rescuers stepped in and helped transform him into the beautiful, happy pup he was always meant to be.
From A Lonely Stray To A New Beginning
A kind-hearted homeowner noticed Pixie wandering in their yard, looking fragile and helpless.
Her condition was heartbreaking—she was described as a “burned puppy” in desperate need of immediate care.

That’s when Lifeline Animal Project at Fulton County Animal Services in Atlanta, Georgia, stepped in to help.
“A concerned citizen called us about a small puppy wandering alone. When our officers rescued her, we immediately knew that this little pup needed help,” the LAP team shared on Facebook.

When Pixie arrived at the facility, she weighed no more than four pounds.
She suffered from a severe case of demodex mange, leaving her completely bald, covered in scabs, and in urgent need of medical attention.
Without hesitation, the rescue team took her in. The very next day, she was placed in a loving foster home with her new caretaker, Daphne.
“She’s receiving medicated baths, lots of love, and can’t wait to be a happy, healthy puppy,” LAP wrote on Facebook.
Making Friends And Growing A Gorgeous Coat
Pixie adjusted to her new life faster than anyone expected. Despite her rough past, she was full of energy and excitement, eager to meet her foster siblings.

“I don’t know if maybe he remembers being in that phase, but he really kind of took on the role that the other dogs took when he came into the house,” Daphne told.
Pixie’s incredible journey touched the hearts of many. After just a month and a half in Daphne’s care, she found her forever home with a loving family.
