Come on, tell me all about it.
00:01
We woke up one Saturday morning, and his legs
00:04
were just completely bent in.
00:07
Kobe was dumped with his siblings
00:10
in a pile of trash cans.
00:12
We told Tales of Hope Dog Rescue just
00:14
to give us whatever puppy was most critical,
00:17
and that was Kobe.
00:19
Well, good morning.
00:22
Good morning.
00:24
Hello.
00:26
He had the worst case of mange.
00:28
He had almost no hair on his body.
00:31
He was covered in scabs and open sores.
00:33
Oh, look at you eating on your own.
00:37
My husband and I took turns staying up with him,
00:39
trying to keep him warm, giving some snuggles.
00:42
Kobe slept really hard for the first two weeks.
00:45
He was severely malnourished.
00:47
Say, I just had a bath, and I'm feeling so much better.
00:51
And then we started to see his little personality come out,
00:53
which was really exciting.
00:55
Hello.
00:57
Hello.
00:58
It was really heartbreaking to see this baby fighting
01:01
so hard for his life.
01:03
About a month after we had Kobe, his skin
01:06
was clear enough for him to leave his quarantine
01:09
and to actually start to interact with other dogs.
01:13
Something to say?
01:14
What you say, Kobe?
01:15
We woke up one Saturday morning, and his legs
01:18
were just completely bent in.
01:20
And unfortunately, he got a really, really bad case
01:22
of rickets.
01:23
It was really scary.
01:25
We were able to take him over to an orthopedic specialist, who
01:28
was able to look at his legs, and then
01:30
decided to split them to help support his legs
01:33
while they were healing.
01:38
What are you doing?
01:40
Whoa.
01:41
The splints were hard on Kobe, like they'd
01:43
be hard on any puppy.
01:45
But through it all, he was just so happy.
01:47
And his tail was wagging.
01:49
And his really just joyous personality came out.
01:52
Oh, my goodness.
01:55
He got cleared from the splints almost exactly two months
01:59
after we got him.
02:00
And he took off running.
02:02
It was like he knew that he was done,
02:04
that he could just be a puppy.
02:06
And it took him a minute to realize
02:08
that he was in the free and clear.
02:10
But then he just took off and started playing.
02:12
I did cry a little bit.
02:14
He had been through a lot in that last two months with us.
02:18
Just sort of seeing that independence come out,
02:20
that's been really cool.
02:23
Huge transformations.
02:24
And when we look at that picture we took of him
02:26
on the first day.
02:28
Can you sit?
02:29
Good job.
02:31
To two months later, and he looks like a real puppy,
02:33
it's just mind boggling that he made
02:36
such a drastic transformation in just two months.
02:40
The best home for Kobe would be one, definitely with the yard.
02:43
He likes to run around.
02:45
Definitely with other dogs, because he
02:47
absolutely loves other dogs.
02:49
He's been kid tested.
02:51
He does great with kids.
02:53
I work from home, and he's a great work from home buddy.
03:00
Kobe.
03:00
Kobe, Kobe, Kobe, Kobe.
03:02
Hey, handsome.
03:04
What are you doing?
