Mom Learns Spanish To Speak Her Rescue Dog’s First Language — And His Reaction Is Priceless

 

In Los Angeles, neighbors were shocked when they woke up one morning to find two little dogs curled up in a pile of broken furniture left on the curb. The pair weren’t just dirty — they were covered in mats, patches of fur missing, and their eyes full of fear. It was clear these pups had nowhere to go, and no one to love them.

“Two tiny, broken souls laying beside the trash,” wrote Suzette Hall, founder of Logan’s Legacy 29. “Curled up next to an old dresser like it was the only shelter they had left in the world.” 🥺

Despite food and water left out for them, the pups — later named Kimber and Pennies — refused to leave the trash pile. They were terrified, frozen in fear, clinging to the only “safe” spot they knew. Unlike many rescues where dogs bolt, these two stayed perfectly still, hoping the world would leave them alone.

But Suzette refused to give up. With patience and soft words, she gently corralled them into a nearby yard. One by one, she slipped leashes over their necks and carried their fragile bodies to safety.

At the vet, their condition became painfully clear. Both tested positive for scabies, a highly contagious skin disease that not only causes terrible itching and pain but can spread to other dogs — even humans. For the first time in their lives together, Kimber and Pennies had to be separated. The sisters cried for each other, and their rescuers’ hearts broke knowing they didn’t understand why.

“They didn’t ask for any of this,” Suzette wrote. “They just want to feel safe, loved, and healthy again.” 

Weeks of treatment followed. Slowly, the painful scabies faded. Their fur began to regrow, their eyes started to shine, and their tails wagged more often. Finally, the day came for Kimber and Pennies to reunite. Their emotional greeting said it all — tails wagging nonstop, noses pressed together, jumping and spinning in pure joy.

Now, the sisters are safe in a loving foster home, where they play, rest, and heal together every day. They’re finally learning what it means to be loved and cherished. And soon, they’ll be ready for adoption — hopefully into a forever home together, where they’ll never be discarded again.

“They are not trash,” Suzette said. “They are worthy. And from this moment forward, their lives will reflect that.”
