Melek the White Angel

Melek was found on the street in Kozyatagi on Sept. 5th. Her rescuer
was walking home from work on a hot day, and saw an extremely thin
kangal mix (Melek) staggering down the sidewalk. She was completely
emaciated and lost, obviously dropped by one of the criminal
municipalities in some random street. Melek had freshly shaved patches
on an inner thigh and on a front leg. She had been prepped for
surgery by the inept municipality veterinarian before they noticed she
was already spayed… so they dropped her like garbage.

In the first picture you can see the state in which she
was found.. Underweight, anemic and covered in fleas.

Thanks to Sharon’s amazing care Melek then completely adapted
to life at a home, including riding in cars and elevators, sitting
before being fed, and walking on a leash. The pictures say it all,
she is sweet, gentle and mellow.

After about 4 weeks in foster care, Melek was close to her ideal
weight, and her coat was healthy and shiny. She was ready to go to her
forever home.

And that forever home has been offered by Rebecca and Martin, and their 3 sweet boys. Melek is now a member of this beautiful family in Istanbul wishing that all her fellow rescue dogs will be as lucky as she has been.
