Story
Meet Miss Winter Spice! This 1 year old rhodesion ridgeback mix came to us the day after Christmas, with a very tragic story to tell. Winter Spice was found running along the road by the Bryson City Welcome sign, hoping someone would stop and help her. Thankfully, a wonderful family did and brought her straight to P.A.W.S., where she was immediately assessed and taken care of by our team. Upon first look, you could tell she was very malnourished and extremely scared of people. She would not walk or even try to stand when people were near her out of fear that something would happen. For many days, our team would carry her outside to use the bathroom, then back inside to her bed, as she still would not walk out on her own.  She started to trust us more and more every day. It started with her ever so slightly wagging her tail when we would come into her room, and then she slowly started to stand up and walk over to us. We did everything at her own pace and never rushed her. In return, she showed us trust and a growing love. However, that is not quite the end of her story. We noticed she had some past trauma to her jaw. We would feel hard fragmints scaddered throughout her jaw and neck, but unsure of what they were. We immediately took her to the vet, where it was discovered her jaw was completely shattered, and what we were feeling was bullet fragments. We had so many questions for why someone would do this. How could anyone hurt an animal, let alone one as sweet and gentle as Winter Spice? We will never understand why these things happen, but one thing we do know is that we will never let anything happen to this sweet girl again.  other dogs and has made many friends here at the shelter, including Suki and Bama! She is still a bit scared of walking on a leash, but with a lot of patience and comfort, she will be ready to go out on walks in no time! She adores children and is such a sweet girl to everyone she meets. While Winter Spice still has a surgery coming up to reconstruct her jaw before she can be adopted, she would love to have some friendly faces come up and hang out with her at the shelter while she waits and heals.  Over the last month, Winter has grown into a completely different dog. What was once a scared girl is now a girl who wants all the attention, and to show everyone she meets love. She loves
