This Poor Pit Bull Suffered Extreme Cruelty, And It's Written All Over Her Face
This sweet pit bull is used to getting some strange looks, when she walks down the street, but that doesn't stop her from finally enjoying her life. After what she's been through, she deserves it.
Stephanie Paquin and her husband found the poor girl, now going by Khaleesi, while visiting Orlando, FL, during the trip to a local shelter. Paquin runs a nonprofit rescue organization and knew she couldn't leave without the dog.
Khaleesi is missing her nose, nostrils, and sinus cavity, and has no use of her back legs.
They aren't sure how the horrific abuse occurred, but they are determined to help her.

The thought that someone could inflict this much pain on such an innocent face is baffling.
But Khaleesi hasn't let it break her spirit one bit.
She's still incredibly playful.
They've taken her to see several specialists who gave them good news about procedures to fix both her nose and back legs.
Hopefully, soon enough, she'll be running around with friends at the dog park!
Of course all of her procedures obviously won't come cheap. You can donate here to help with hermedical expenses and stay up to date on her progress over on the Passion 4 Pits Rescue page.

Meet the incredible 8-year-old who just got two brand-new REAL hands.
Meet 8-year-old Zion- the child that lost both his hands and feet after a deadly infection nearly took his life. Now little Zion has made history along the way thanks to an incredible surgery.
Little 8-year-old Zion had his hands and feet amputated after battling a deadly infection. Thankfully, Zion's ordeal couldn't prevent him from remaining a happy and very healthy kid.
Even though Zion's hands are still pretty new, he already has big plans. Like picking up his little sister.
Despite the challenges ahead, Zion has his eyes on the prize. When asked what he's most looking forward to once his recovery is over, he had this to say:
"Pick up my little sister from daycare, and wait for her to run into my hands and I pick her up and spin her around."
Do you hear that? That's my lonely, only-child heart melting. Hey Zion, if you're ever in the market for a big brother, I'm right here.

Now Zion's making history as the world's first double hand transplant patient.

The most exciting thing about Zion's story? It doesn't end with him. His historic double hand transplant is only the beginning.
Because he's the first, doctors and physical therapists will be closely monitoring his progress as he heals and learns how to use his new hands. Just think: A few years from now, multiple limb transplants will be old news, as more and more people benefit from this incredible technology.
