Meet Jay-Z, the adopted chihuahua with her signature sticking-out-tongue and no less extraordinary story than her looks. She was a very old and very sick pooch at a shelter where everyone thought she didn’t have much left. Then, the eyes of the dog and Heather Hayes, a marketing manager at the Asheville Humane Society, met, changing their lives forever.[Post_ads]
“The staff at the shelter wondered if she was even adoptable because her health was so bad,” she tells The Dodo. “I said, ‘Let me take her home for a night and if we decide she doesn’t have a quality of life and we have to let her go, I want her to be at a home. ‘At least she’ll feel loved for 24 hours.'”[Post_ads_2]
Since that day, 4 marvellous years have passed. Yes, the doggie survived the next day, and the next, and in fact, being loved gave her a second life. “It is so rewarding to bring home animals who are overlooked and give them a family… She has the most incredible will to live of any animal I’ve ever known.”[Post_ads_2]
The woman added: “Jay-Z taught me to cherish senior animals, who need love and comfort the most in the final years of their lives. Just like people.”
