Rajasthan, India - A poor dog was found on the street, covered in mange. She looked like she'd lost hope, but the rescuers who found her didn't want to give up.

Rescuers from Animal Aid Unlimited named the sweet dog Lady.

"She hardly looked up when our rescuers approached her. She had no will to fight for her life. She had completely given up, and pain had won," the rescue organization wrote under a video of the pup's rescue.

The aid workers carried Lady to a car and drove her to their vets where she received medicine to kill the parasitic mange. They also applied lotion to soothe her skin.

Although Lady still looked very miserable over the next few days, she slowly blossomed.

After a while, her hair began to grow back in patches.

Good food and more medicated baths from Animal Aid Unlimited literally helped the doggo get back on her feet.
