Chicago's Trio Animal Foundation President Sue Naiden shared some of their dogs' rags-to-riches stories with BuzzFeed. These photos show just how far a little help and a lot of love can go for a struggling animal.
TAF is a charity that pays the medical bills of homeless pets, along with promoting adoption and responsible pet ownership.
