The story of Ariel, the dog that nearly lost her life drowning in a tank!

[@skippynoah]

Thanks to the guy who rescued Ariel from the water tank, thanks to Takis for giving her the time to recover at her own pace and especially thanks to the lovely Priska who made Ariel a free spirit who loves all doggie things like every other dog.

[@jamessalter851]

Thank you for saving this precious baby girl. She's in good hands now. Whoever did this to her deserves the same treatment.

[@dearace9991]

I’m in tears, why people are so cruel they’re monsters 😢😡thank you to the good man that saw her, thank you to the vet, Thank you to you Takis,she knows she’s safe, she’s so scared & sad. In no time she feels safe, the power of love, miracle. Thank you to Ariel’s mom very nice of her to adopt her. ❤️🌹👼🏼🥰🤶🏻🙏

[@anteversus8471]

We'll never forget Ariel, we loved her so much

[@asanablue]

Yes Ariel is a miracle. Shes had a life and death experience because she was not cared for. Because of you Takis she has a chance for a happy life. Its amazing she pulled through. Depression for an animal breaks my heart. 💜 I cant believe how good she looks and what a beautifully marked she is. Shes a good looking dog. I am glad shes close with the other dogs. She deserves more than any dog in this life. 💜💜💜🦴🦴🦴

[@deborahspivak1978]

She’s our miracle girl! The whole world cried for her and rejoiced as she healed and got her happy ever after ! 💕💕🐾🐾🙏🏻🙏🏻🇮🇱

Takis, the man who dedicated his life to animals who need help....my deepest respect for this kind, gentle, humble man....I am so happy for Ariel, I was watching her story and her very slow progress and I am happy more that Ariel is adopted and live happy life....thank you dear Priska, much love from MAssachusetts.

Ariel survived her traumatic journey to her forever beautiful home, thank you all for helping Ariel❤️🙏🥰

[@sleepinglioness5754]

Ariel taught the world why we should never give up. Takis waited by her side and gave her all the time she needed to heal her heart, her body and her mind. Ariel could not have found a better foster fail Mama...Priska. What a heart rendering yet incredibly joyful story Ariel has. Takis and Priska took Ariel from 💔to❤‍🩹to💖 That's what real love can do.

I'm an emotional person to begin with, but Ariel (and a few other stories here & on other channels I support) just left me sobbing. The evil in this world........there are no words😠😠. But thank goodness for people like Takis who comes to the rescue of these precious souls & truly turns their lives around. And this wonderful woman Priska, who took her in & of course Ariel thrived and was accepted by her pack of other rescues so now is in her forever home living her best life with beautiful Priska and her fur siblings.💓💓💓

First there were big tears, and a broken heart 💔. How could someone do this to her? My heart ❤️ ached when I saw her sad and afraid 😟. But when she started to warm up and find dogs to play with and when the amazing lady from Switzerland came and Ariel was going to get her forever home then I had tears of happiness. Watching Ariel run and jump in the snow play and dig in the beautiful grass she has her forever home. She has friends and a great mom who will love her and care for her for the rest of her life. Thank you to Takis his volunteers the vet everyone who took time to care for this dog.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🐶
