When Jenny Desmond was driving through a remote Liberian village, she saw a sick puppy on the side of the road. It quickly became apparent that she was d.y.i.n.g, and in desperate need of help.
Jenny, who runs a chimpanzee sanctuary with her husband, Jim, knew she had to act fast in order to save the tiny pup.
She immediately arranged for her to be brought back to their chimpanzee sanctuary.
It didnโt matter that she was a puppy, not a chimp โ she was an animal in need.
Though they werenโt in the habit of rescuing puppies, Jenny simply saw an animal who was struggling, and knew she needed to help her.
Jim is a vet and was able to save the puppyโs life.
They named the little sweetie Snafu.
After several months at the sanctuary, Snafu healed. She grew into a healthy and strong pup.
