\u201cYou wouldn\u2019t even guess he was the same dog!\u201d<\/h2>\n
\n

\n

When Denim first arrived at the Pennsylvania SPCA, he wasn\u2019t sure what to think. The gentle puppy had spent lots of time on his own, abandoned and wandering the city streets. When rescuers finally found him and took him back to the shelter, they were heartbroken to realize he was just skin and bones.<\/p>\n

\u201cDenim was initially scared and certainly fearful,\u201d Gillian Kocher, Pennsylvania SPCA director of public relations, told The Dodo. \u201cHe very often had his tail tucked and was hesitant to go through doors or outside.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

As days at the shelter flew by, Denim slowly learned what it was like to be loved. He enjoyed lots of food and received medical care for the injuries he\u2019d sustained while on his own. Soon, Denim\u2019s fragile frame was taking a new shape, and his bashful demeanor vanished to reveal his true colors.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is always so rewarding to see dogs transform from shy, shutdown beings to silly, happy ones,\u201d Kocher said. \u201cAnd of course the physical transformation is just as remarkable \u2014 you wouldn\u2019t even guess he was the same dog!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Finally happy and healthy, the former wallflower became the most jubilant dog in the room.<\/p>\n

\u201cDenim is a true puppy now,\u201d Kocher said. \u201cHe loves to play with other dogs, though he can be A LOT for them. He just wants to have fun, and his puppy energy is evident when he goes to doggy playgroup at the shelter.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The newly energized pup is enjoying his time at the Pennsylvania SPCA as he waits to find his forever family. Kocher knows whoever takes Denim home will have a friend for life.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause he is just learning to dog, he will need some help with his manners and learning the ropes of living in a home,\u201d Kocher said. \u201cBut we know [for] whoever adopts him, it will be so rewarding!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
