As she turns ‘Kill List’ closer, ‘ugly’ dog believes her time is up
Aimee, a six-month-old Pit Bull, arrived at the Carson Animal Care Center in California in a worrying condition. It was clear she had been neglected, as her skin peeled off in patches, indicating severe discomfort and possibly pain. The sight of such a small abandoned dog highlighted the urgent attention and care she required from shelter staff and potential future adopters.

Shelter staff were told that Aimee was friendly, but she became worried when other scared dogs barked loudly. Aimee has been treated for her skin condition but now she thinks no one will adopt her because she is ugly.

When it was Aimee’s turn to be on the euthanasia list, the staff stepped up their efforts to help her find a loving home. They wrapped her in a colorful blanket and took a cute photo of her to share on social media. The image quickly attracted attention as people noticed Aimee’s sad expression despite the cheerful surroundings.
