Chi Chi’s rescue was a ray of hope in the midst of darkness, but her journey to recovery was far from easy. All of her feet had to be amputated due to severe infections. Despite this harrowing ordeal, Chi Chi displayed an incredible will to survive.

Following her amputations, Chi Chi faced the daunting task of learning to live and thrive with only her stumps. Her resilience was evident from the moment she woke up after surgery, attempting to walk and wagging her tail. She defied the odds and was soon ready to start her new life in the United States.

Chi Chi’s journey to her new home in Arizona was marked by significant milestones. Her first encounter with grass and the scent of freedom was a momentous occasion. Even more heartwarming was her introduction to her new family—Richard, Elizabeth, and Megan Howell. The Howells already had two other rescue dogs, Kipper and Harry, who welcomed Chi Chi with open paws.

Despite her loss of all four legs, Chi Chi proved that nothing could dampen her spirit. With the help of a specialized veterinarian, she began the journey of adapting to prosthetic legs. While it may take time to adjust, Chi Chi faces this new chapter with the same energy and enthusiasm that has defined her remarkable story.

Thanks to the generosity of ARME and the contributions from kind-hearted individuals, Chi Chi received her first set of prosthetic legs. Her unique case required all four prostheses, which experts are customizing to ensure her comfort and mobility. Witnessing Chi Chi running around with her new legs is a testament to her resilience and the power of love and support.

Chi Chi’s story has come full circle, from the depths of despair to a life filled with love and kindness. She has not only experienced the goodness of people but has also shared her love and positivity with those she encounters. Chi Chi’s next adventure is to become a certified therapy dog, spreading joy and inspiration wherever she goes.

Chi Chi’s journey serves as a powerful reminder that love and compassion can triumph over adversity, and together, we can make a difference in the lives of animals in need.
