According to Howl Of A Dog, Mina was in a dire state when they found her – she was extremely thin, had mange, an intestinal infection, was anemic, dehydrated, and barely able to walk. On top of all that, she was emotionally traumatized and scared of everything. However, once she was brought to the facility, her journey to recovery took a surprising and inspiring turn. Despite the odds stacked against her, Mina not only managed to overcome her health issues but also transformed into a new, confident dog. Now, she enjoys belly rubs and her story of resilience continues to touch the hearts of many.
