00:00She wasn't moving, she was just a little ball and she was so thick with flies.
00:06So then she shook her head and I was like, oh my gosh, I felt it actually alive.
00:09How long has it been like this?
00:13When I walked up to her, I was expecting a little bit of aggression, a little bit of reaction.
00:16I touched her and there was nothing, she was completely calm.
00:20I think she'd already given up.
00:23And I looked at her gums and they were ice white, like gone, gone, gone.
00:27The white of the gum is a really bad sign.
00:31So we did warn the owner, you know, we'll try our best but she might not come back.
00:38And there wasn't much anger, it was a very, very poor family.
00:42Most likely it was a dog that wandered in and they tried to feed it.
00:52At one point she stood up and her legs collapsed under her, it was like a little baby giraffe.
00:57So we picked her up and she was just limping.
01:06And Tinka and about 50 flies came all the way back to play with us.
01:16Tinka spent about two weeks at the vet.
01:21And then the next time I saw her after the vet, it was like a little mini collie,
01:24little underbite, so cute, almost unrecognisable.
01:28Her mum now had watched Tinka's video.
01:30She'd seen something in Tinka and she was like, that's my dog.
01:35Now she's such a lively, fun, happy dog.
01:38And I actually don't think she even remembers the past life.
01:41She could be a model.
01:42It's like they live in the moment and that's why they recover.
