This 5-year-old stray dog was so sick from mange that her faced turned to stone

“I don’t think she had ever been touched by a human before. Not even approached actually”

Scared, she would run away at the sight of people coming too close. But the rescuers finally got her

“I could pet her before but she didn’t enjoy it – she didn’t understand what petting was about”

“But after a couple of months [when she recovered] she started asking for it”

“She now loves to have her belly rubbed – she actually demands that you do it!”

Now the pooch named Petra is healthy and ready to love and be loved, sadly, she hasn’t been adopted yet…

So if you’re from Europe and want to give her a forever home, please contact the rescue
