While on his way home from work, Rico Soegiarto witnessed a heartbreaking scene on the streets of Denpasar, Bali – a dog that was partially buried in the road. This poor creature was in dire straits, suffering from severe malnourishment, covered in wounds and completely hairless.
Despite being a Siberian Husky, the dog was in such a sad state that it was difficult to recognize her breed. However, Rico’s compassion knew no bounds, and he was determined to rescue her. Although Rico already had four rescue dogs waiting for him at home, he felt an instant connection when he looked into the suffering pup’s eyes. He named her Hope, inspired by the glimmer of optimism in her bright blue eyes, even in the midst of her deplorable condition.
Without hesitation, Rico swiftly took in Hope and welcomed her into his home, initiating the beginning of her miraculous recovery journey. He aided her in regrowing her fur by giving her soothing medicated baths and providing her with plenty of nutritious food. Nursing Hope back to health was a labor of love, a task that Rico approached with unwavering dedication.
As time went by, Hope’s remarkable transformation became increasingly evident. Her newfound confidence shone through as her once-bare skin was now covered in a lush coat of fur. She was unrecognizable once again, but this time, it was a testament to her incredible revival.
A year later, Hope’s metamorphosis was nothing short of extraordinary. She had transformed into a stunning, disease-free Husky, radiating with life and vitality. Rico not only rescued her from the brink but also decided to make her a cherished member of his family.
Currently, Hope is residing in Bali with Rico and his loved ones, relishing her “second chance” at life which is now filled with happiness and affection. Rico’s act of kindness and commitment has not only granted Hope a new lease on life but also showcased the deep bond that can exist between humans and their four-legged companions.

It’s truly remarkable how resilient dogs can be in the face of adversity. Allow me to introduce you to Hope, a little warrior rescued by Deepika Srivastavva in Gurgaon, India. Hope was discovered as a tiny puppy with her insides hanging out, abandoned and defenseless.
Imagine her plight – just 20 days old, separated from her mother, and left in an area inhabited by territorial street dogs. They attacked her, leaving her on the brink of death. Thankfully, she was found in time and rushed to the hospital, where a life-saving surgery was performed to mend her injured stomach.
Today, Hope is a thriving 4-5 months old, living up to her name with incredible resilience and potential. Despite not being involved in her initial rescue, Stray Dog stepped in when no one in India was willing to adopt her. Returning her to the streets was not an option, as she lacked the survival skills necessary.
“We’ll be standing by this brave girl until we find her a new home. Although she appears physically healthy, we had to postpone her spay surgery due to the challenges she has overcome,” shares her rescuer and foster parent.
According to them, Hope is not just physically resilient but also remarkably clever and affectionate. She’s learned to walk on a leash and is crate trained, proving that even after a tumultuous start, love and care can transform a life. Let’s join hands to ensure Hope’s journey continues towards a brighter, happier future.
