Power Of Love: Before And After Adoption (21 Pics + 1 Vid)
Love is so incredibly powerful. It can transform anyone and anything, with the proper TLC (tender, love, and care).
Whenever we come across a before and after images of a neglected animal and the transformation to healthy and happy -- we can't help but get emotional. Do be warned though, some of the 'before' images are quite graphic. We're just so happy someone got them in time to help be their true and best selves.
We love all adopted faces, and we wish all those lovely animals a loving and happy forever home.
