Since he was so underweight, no one wanted to take Harlow, who was discovered in a locked room while his owner was away, from the P.S.A. shelter in January 2021.

He was afraid to stay inside when I got him home, so I had to stay by his side and talk to him to make him feel better. Additionally, he was given nourishment to help him put on weight.

“THE NEXT DAY HE COULD PLAY A LITTLE WITH JADA OUTSIDE, BUT WHEN WE LEFT HIM ALONE – HE FELT REALLY UNHAPPY, SO BASICALLY I HAD TO TALK WITH HIM ALL THE TIME, EVEN LET HIM SLEPT IN MY ROOM FOR A FEW DAYS,” the author writes.

He gained 2 kilograms after a week thanks to his good appetite, but he still looked quite thin and was at worst 20 kilograms underweight.

He became more self-assured and less likely to worry over time. He also learned to walk, stopped being afraid of the dark, and developed a fondness for running around in the garden.

“I GAVE HIM A FIRST TRIP TO THE BEACH AFTER 3 MONTHS, AND HE ENJOYED IT SO MUCH,” the author said.

Let’s take a look back at Harlow’s incredible transformation. He is now a healthy, confident, and occasionally mischievous dog because he likes to play so much.

He has this bad habit, which I abhor so much, but it’s good that he was able to forget about it.
