One man has shared his tale about how her helped give a dog her ‘dignity back’ after he found her ‘broken’ on the streets of Thailand.
Dog charity worker Niall Harbison says he’s “on a mission to save 10,000 pooches a month”. He often shares his stories about transforming dogs on X, where he boasts 407,000 followers.
And one of his latest posts about dog Jenny certainly captured people’s attention, as it racked up thousands of views and likes.
Niall starting by sharing a photo of Jenny looking sad and downtrodden as he wrote: “Four days ago when I found her on Saturday night she was utterly broken and had given up on life.
“We’ve been working hard to turn her life around and the difference is already beautiful to watch. Jenny is starting to look and feel like she has some hope in life…”
Niall said people used to ignore Jenny and ‘act like she didn’t exist’. He said: “She would wait outside this local Thai shop in the hope someone would toss her some dinner.”
However, he said the “great news” is that he’s been able to sort her pain out with medicines. “She was in agony from itching, bleeding and eye infections,” he explains. “Actually very easy stuff to treat and huge instant wins.”
Niall then showed a photo of Jenny now who looked refreshed and happy as she poked her tongue out. He said: “It’s hard to believe but this is the same dog today. The clarity in her eyes tells you everything. I don’t think I’m imagining it to say that she is a dog who has hope, love and some dignity in those eyes now just four days later.”

He added: “She didn’t know how to live with us at @wearehappydoggo for the first 48 hours as all was strange. She now enjoys the soft blankets and sitting under the fan all day. As her body relaxes she is sleeping non-stop.”
Niall concluded by saying: “She is by no means fixed and her journey is just starting but you can tell she understands her life has no totally changed for the better. Jenny is no longer invisible to the world.”
People were loving the transformation story, as one person exclaimed: “Amazing.” Another gushed: “What a pretty girl,” while someone else said: “She has the most precious eyes! Broke my heart to see her just be ignored.”
A fourth chimed in: “Wow! What a transformation in a few days. Saint Niall; the Highest Guardian of dogs.”
