Sweet Daphne is one of the hardest stories Chain of Hope has to tell. It is a story of resilience, strength, love, and hope.
RESILIANCE of a dog beaten so badly she was permanently disfigured, required numerous painful surgeries, and through it all still able to just wag her tail and accept the love and comfort of humans she needed to simply survive.
STRENGTH to transform anger and hatred of the person who took a baseball ball to this sweet little girl into the strength it takes to go into the streets and alleys every day trying to prevent such tragedies from occuring ever again. Strength to persevere through bitter cold, rain, and blistering heat, to give animals a voice, a chance to never end up as Daphne did.
The LOVE of staff, volunteers, vets, and surgeons to so carefully repair a fragile soul to wholeness. Love of a foster family to take her in, to heal, to be loved, to play and to be by her side a year later when she took her last sweet breath.
And HOPE, from you, our supporters, who make our work possible. We thank you.
