We all know that we’re not perfect. Puppies can also be born with physical limitations and deformities that can make them the subject of ridicule or even rejection and fear from others.
Honestly, can anyone blame these adorable creatures for having a disability since birth? Should they be deemed less worthy because of it, or do they not deserve a life filled with dignity and affection?
It’s unfortunate that people tend to judge animals and humans based on their looks rather than their true character. For instance, a dog’s appearance may cause someone to feel disgust without taking the time to appreciate the beauty hidden behind its twisted features. I wish society could learn to love and value individuals for who they truly are, regardless of their circumstances. Unfortunately, those who deviate from societal norms are often unfairly rejected.
When people catch a glimpse of her, they run away and don’t give her the chance she deserves. Meet Bethany, an adorable eight-month-old Labrador retriever who was born with some birth complications that have affected a significant portion of her facial features.
Ever since she was rescued from the streets of Ukraine, life has been a struggle for her. Now, all she wants is to find a warm and caring home where she can finally feel safe and loved.
It has become a common occurrence for people to avoid her upon first sight, assuming that she may have an infectious condition. His nose is completely turned towards the right side of his face, while his vision is directed in the opposite direction and all of his teeth are fully exposed. Additionally, he has a deviated eye. Although people may perceive her to be ill or aggressive when they first encounter her, this couldn’t be further from the truth.
Despite her appearance, Ethany has spent a significant amount of time at the Safe Rescue for Dogs shelter in England and has struggled to find a permanent home. In a world where looks matter, Ethany unfortunately was born with an unattractive appearance. However, according to a shelter representative, she is a wonderful dog who is healthy, sociable, cheerful, obedient, and loves children.
A potential adoptive family approached her but decided not to take her home. Despite this, Ethany remains hopeful that she will find someone who will accept her flaws and appreciate her positive qualities. She longs for someone to see past her exterior and recognize the goodness in her heart. Although some people disagree with the shelter staff’s assessment of Ethany, those who have firsthand knowledge can attest that there is no risk in adopting her. The staff has taken her to the vet multiple times to ensure that she is healthy. Many individuals only seek out dogs for social media photo opportunities, without considering the love and care that rescued animals require. However, Ethany, who has endured terrible conditions in her life, deserves the greatest love and care. Despite her hardships, she remains one of the most beautiful and awesome dogs anyone could ever meet.
Those taking care of Ethany are aware of her situation, but they remain hopeful that a kind-hearted person will adopt her and treat her with the compassion she deserves as a member of a family. She is a beautiful and deserving child who needs a loving family to protect and care for her. If I lived in that country, I would not hesitate to adopt her. One should have patience, as the right person who can see through the haze and appreciate her generous heart will come soon. One should never allow outward appearances to distract them from doing what is truly worthwhile.
