A new year can offer the perfect opportunity to clear out the clutter and start fresh. But tragically, for one family in Dallas, Texas, their end-of-year discards included the family dog.

The poor, terrified creature was left out on the street with nothing but her old, tattered blanket and a look of dejection. Marina Tarashevska found the dog in this state on New Year’s Day, 2019, the day after the dog’s family left her behind. Mercifully, this passerby stopped and gave the suffering pup her full attention; Tarashevska is the co-founder of Dallas DogRRR, a rescue initiative for dogs in need.
