An injured Chihuahua has found her furever home after an exhausting ordeal. The stray had been hit by a car and was trying to nurse her own wounds under a shipping container. Hope for Paws heard about the injured pup and stepped in to help.

Rescue Founder, Eldad Hagar and volunteer Lisa Chiarelli, were able to lure the frightened pup out from her makeshift shelter. The little dog was untrusting of humans and fought with every bit of energy her tired body could expend. You can't help but feel sad for the injured chihuahua who had no one there to help but herself.

But, this story does have a happy ending. When she ran out of steam, they were able to get a leash on her and wrap her up in a blanket. They named her Amy and took her straight to the hospital where they treated her for her injuries.

She had some broken bones near her knee and was required to wear an external fixator for 8 weeks. The recovery must've been incredibly tough, but it's nothing compared to the fierce qualities of this lovely pup.

Through The Dog Rescuers, Amy has found her forever home.
