Snowflake was in very bad shape. She was very malnourished, dehydrated, and her body temperature was well below what it should’ve been.

Brooks then called Andrea Bertolucci, a veterinary advisor for Marley’s Mutts, who reopened the clinic to examine Snowflake. She treated the poor pup and gave her fluids. As the days went on, Snowflake’s health improved.

Once Snowflake was better, she went to live with a foster and made a new friend. Her foster family already had a dog named Massie, who took on the role of a mother with Snowflake. Massie was there to comfort Snowflake, to make her feel at home, and to teach her how to be a dog.
