Maggie’s Journey to Becoming a Certified Therapy Dog and Making a Difference

Maggie, a 5-year-old pooch, is nothing short of a miracle dog as she has managed to survive even after being shot 17 times. To add to her wonderous story, she was also pregnant at the time of the incident. However, despite all the struggles, Maggie made it through and found her forever home. Not only that, but she also became a registered therapy dog, proving that even the most challenging situations can have positive outcomes.

Maggie’s tale of bravery and perseverance began in Lebanon, where she was found tied to a box with one ear missing and a fractured jaw. She had been tortured and shot 17 times with a shotgun while pregnant, which left her completely blind. When a concerned citizen saw Maggie and shared her story on social media, a woman from London reached out to The Wild At Heart Foundation for help. With their assistance, Maggie was rescued and given the medical attention she needed before being adopted by a family in Brighton, England. Her journey to recovery was not easy, but Maggie’s determination and strength kept her going until she found her forever home.

At the young age of 25, Kasey Carlin has become a full-time Instagram manager for her beloved dog, Maggie, who has amassed an impressive following of over 248,000 fans. Kasey left her previous job at a dog facility to dedicate all her attention to Maggie’s social media account. According to Kasey, Maggie has taught her valuable lessons that she now applies to her everyday life. These include not judging a book by its cover, the power of love, humility, living life to the fullest, serving others, creating your own happiness, and achieving anything with belief. Kasey credits Maggie for inspiring her to strive for self-improvement and to pursue excellence every day.

Maggie has recently been certified as a therapy dog and is now spreading joy and comfort to various places like hospitals, nursing homes, and colleges. Her serene and cheerful demeanor has captured the hearts of everyone she meets, including her owners and Mishka, Kasey’s other furry companion at home.
