On the streets of India, a brave stray dog named Juli faced incredible odds. Blinded by an unfortunate accident and battling CTVT (Canine Transmissible Venereal Tumor), a contagious form of cancer, Juli relied on her sharp instincts and other senses to navigate her harsh surroundings. While kind-hearted strangers occasionally left food and water for her, her health steadily declined as the tumor took its toll.
Rescuers from RRSA India heard of Juli’s plight and worked tirelessly to find her. It wasn’t easy—Juli constantly moved in search of food and shelter. When they finally located her, the team was struck by her resilience. Despite her blindness and frail condition, Juli seemed to sense their good intentions and allowed them to approach.
The team gently earned Juli’s trust by setting up a feeding station and spending quiet moments nearby. Slowly but surely, Juli began to approach them, drawn by their warmth and kindness. Once comfortable, she was transported to a veterinary clinic where surgeons successfully removed the tumor, though her vision could not be restored.
Under the care of RRSA India, Juli’s health improved significantly. The shelter provided her with ongoing medical support and a safe, loving environment. Although she remains blind, Juli has transformed into a healthier and happier dog, a shining example of how compassion and determination can change lives.
Juli will stay at the shelter permanently, where she continues to inspire everyone who meets her. Those wishing to support Juli’s care can donate to ensure she lives the rest of her life in comfort. Her story is a testament to the power of kindness and the unbreakable spirit of animals like her.
