Life is pretty tough for many stray animals. Not only do they have to scavenge for morsels of food to survive, they have to make do with whatever home they can find in the streets.
For this dog, she had to live in a construction site for almost a year.

She braved the dangers of her environment just to have a place she could stay. Luckily, the construction workers in the area were generous enough to share their leftovers and scraps of food with her.
So, despite her dangerous “home”, she was getting by.
Unfortunately, things suddenly took a turn for the worse, and her life changed forever.

As if life wasn’t difficult for this stray already, this poor pooch got into an accident and received serious injuries on her front left leg.
It is unclear how it happened, but she had a double fracture on her ulna and radius and needed immediate surgery.

Since she was a stray, no one noticed her injuries straight away. She had to endure the pain and suffered for several days.
It wasn’t until a woman who lived nearby spotted her and noticed her limp. The woman quickly brought her to the vet and had her injury treated.
Her Recovery

Treatment and recovery wasn’t a walk in the park for this hurt and hapless hound. She had to undergo repair surgery and received a metal plate implant to help heal her broken bones.

Thankfully, the kind woman who found her generously paid for all her medical expenses. One of the construction workers also volunteered to house her in their backyard temporarily.
For over two months, this pooch lived in a garden shed and waited for the brunt of her injury to heal.
Difficulties of Finding a Home

Sadly, the construction worker could not foster her long-term, and the lady who initially found her could not find an adoptive family for her.
It finally reached a point where they were out of options and feared for the dog’s future.

But another guardian angel arrived in this pooch’s life in the form of Howl Of A Dog, an animal rescue organization. Upon learning what she went through, the organization quickly took her under their wing.

They found out that she is very sweet around people. Due to her sweetness and brown coat, they aptly named her Honey!

After months in the shelter, Howl Of A Dog happily reported that Honey finally found her fur-ever home in a coastal town in England.
Her adoptive dad shared that Honey is adjusting and recovering very well. She enjoys beach walks and is quickly making friends. The shopkeepers love to give her treats!

Honey’s story is a touching tale of kindness, generosity, resiliency, and new beginnings. No matter how bleak life gets, there’s always a rainbow after the rain.
