Kia

Little Kia’s (now Tia) future was as dark and grim as the transporters pegged her personality. Dumped at the shelter twice, deemed aggressive with major behavioral problems and listed rescue only, didn’t give her much hope for adoption or survival. Nobody could handle this small but difficult girl. As a last resort, a volunteer reached out to Merlin’s Hope and she was given the chance that may have saved her life.
Yes Kia proved to be as tough as she was smart, but in the right hands, she learned quickly how adapt to rules and modify her unruly behavior.
Today we celebrate a real happy ending. Previous adopters tragically lost their handsome shar pei and were riddled with grief. Instead of sending flowers, we sent a photo of a flowered shar pei named Kia. It was love at first sight. Kia didn’t replace their beloved boy, but filled their broken hearts back up with love. Today, we’re unsure of who rescued who, but we do know it’s a happy ending all around.
