Hond’s Incredible Transformation: From Obese to Active in New Home

Kale Chips, a dog, captured attention for being adopted in 2015 while severely overweight.

However, after adoption, a remarkable transformation took place.

Let’s delve into his journey of change.

The saga of this endearing canine began a few years back when he found a new loving home.

Despite his challenges in mobility, the dog was granted a fresh start at life.

At eight years old, weighing close to 40 kilos, as reported by Paw My Gosh, the load was too much for his petite frame to bear.

Kale’s owner, struggling with memory loss, unintentionally underfed him. This led to a heartbreaking separation, deemed the best choice for the dog’s well-being.

Efforts were made to rehome him with a new family where he could thrive peacefully.

Subsequently, he shed 18 kilos, almost half his body weight, experiencing a significant improvement in his well-being.

Just a month post-adoption, his transformation was truly remarkable:

What a wonderful blessing that he was given a new lease on life.

GOOD DOG! Remember “Kale Chips” the Chicago beagle who weighed 85 pounds when he was rescued last winter? He has since lost 23 pounds and is now looking for a loving home.
