Brat was found in the middle of an intersection.
00:04
She helped herself up into the police vehicle when it arrived.
00:09
Her condition was by far the worst case of matting that we've seen.
00:14
She just looked so uncomfortable.
00:17
She was just walking inches at a time. We just kept trying to reassure her that things were gonna get better from here.
00:23
Her face, right on her snout, was really the only place that wasn't covered in mats.
00:31
Thankfully, we were able to sedate her for her groom to make it as comfortable as possible for her.
00:38
The grooming took several hours. They just had to be very, very careful to not cut any part of her body.
00:45
They had to just go very slowly, and in total it was more than 30 pounds.
00:53
Yeah!
00:54
Oh!
00:55
Like, that's a whole catty.
00:57
It's heavy!
00:58
Oh my gosh.
00:59
It's really heavy!
01:00
So, thankfully, we had a foster right away for her.
01:05
It was dicey at first, only because she didn't know how to do stairs.
01:11
Her personality started to emerge. I think each day she started to warm up more and become more playful.
01:19
She started to have zoomies.
01:24
She started to steal socks. Her new favorite thing is to take a sock and cuddle with it on the couch.
01:40
She received a lot of applications.
01:43
Going back to day one, we wouldn't have thought that she would be in this spot today.
01:48
What's underneath your head?
01:50
Oh, do you have my sock? Yes, oh, that's very nice. Oh, thank you.
