When we first met Ethel, a 5-year-old Great Dane, she was trembling. Her coat was dull, her body worn from years as a breeder, her song a haunting croon of fear.
Step by step, she began to trust. One stair. One treat. One safe night on the couch. Slowly, her fearful cries turned into soft snores — the sweetest melody of all.
Ethel didn’t just find a home. She found her voice again — and taught us that healing is built in quiet victories and endless love.
