Kindness is so powerful it can help heal the worst cruelty.
Claudia is now a radiant girl, a junior puppy, enjoying people and other dogs.
She is unrecognizable today from the time of her rescue a few months ago when she was cowering and growling, head to the ground, found abused and abandoned on the mean streets.
Special thanks to volunteers dedicating their time and patience for Claudia and the others who must be shown that humans are capable of compassion.
Claudia is an golden Heinz 57, just 29 pounds, most likely a blend of Italian Greyhound or Whippet. She is 11 months of age, spayed, and triumphantly debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.
