In the week before Christmas, on a bed beside a log burner, a dog with a belly full of lobster snoozed. A few months earlier the dog had lain in the cold and filth of a Welsh puppy farm, her belly empty of food but full of her last litter of puppies. For six years Susie-Belle had been trapped in a life of misery as someone's commodity, a puppy farm breeding bitch, tied up in the back of a putrid shed, never seeing the outside world. She received little or no care, experiencing neglect to a horrifying degree. Failure to produce enough puppies would have meant certain death. She would have been missed by no one, leaving her particular hellhole without ever knowing that life can be good. For this little dog, peace came before death; she is one of the lucky ones, for she was rescued, lifted out of the dark and grubby nightmare that is puppy farming, and brought to safety in our world. Now she shares a peaceful home and experiences nothing less than complete loving daily care. Where once she was a scabby, nameless creature, she now has a beautiful name, and for the miniature schnauzer Susie-Belle, life these days is good—as good as it can possibly be. Never again will it be anything less for this gentle soul who has suffered at the hands of humans who value commercial profits more than life itself. This is the story of Susie-Belle and her road to recovery.
