This winter, a woman found a Goldendoodle alone, wandering through the woods. It was living on its own for some months. When the woman saw that the poor dog ate rocks and tinfoil, she immediately contacted Wilson County Humane Society. The dog was so matted and skinny, and when vets saw an x-ray of her stomach, they were shocked to see it was still alive!
Here is the story of Molly, now a happy Goldendoodle that discovered what good life is. Check out this good girl!

The two-year-old dog was so emaciated that you could see her bones coming out of her matted coat of fur. She had nothing to eat and resorted to eating rocks and tinfoil to keep her stomach full…

The fur was so tangled, that you could barely see the poor dog’s face. She was very skittish, but fortunately for her rescuers, she could be caught because she was very weak. They named her Molly and then, this happened…

But as soon as she was taken to the hospital, everything started getting better. She had to be shaved and then, the vets saw that all the things she ingested were passed on their own. She didn’t need surgery!

Soon, Molly got to a foster house, where Susan Nocito took care of the poor pup. This is what she said: ‘She was literally a skeleton. She was so weak.’ Susan said in an interview how Molly was first found. It’s heartbreaking!

‘She had been wandering into neighborhoods eating people’s trash. She was living off of rocks, acorns, tinfoil, old chicken strips and rags. It’s a miracle she didn’t need surgery,’ said Nocito. But Molly needed a lot of care…

Molly needed a lot of care to help her regain her strength, so Nocito stood by the pup 24/7. The dog had to be sedated to get her haircut, because the hair was so matted, that it was too difficult to cut! You won’t believe this…

The poor pup lost 6 pounds of matted fur and then weighed only 24 pounds, which was less than the half she should have weighed. But until Nocito would start taking care of Molly, the pup had to travel a bit.

‘She was just the sweetest thing once she got here. But she was very, very timid of me and my dogs,’ said Nocito. The foster mom had a lot of work to do to rehabilitate Molly and make her comfortable with people and other dogs. The pooch had to learn how to be a good companion. And a miracle happened!
