THIS collie-cross may look a picture of health but only last month she was found severely emaciated collapsed in a Worcester park.
The Worcester News reported how a member of the public who found the dog rushed it to the RSPCA, where a vet confirmed she was very close to death and put her on a drip.
Today the RSPCA has told how the dog has made a miraculous recovery since she was found in King George's Field, Brickfields, Worcester, on Tuesday, March 8.
"She was lucky to be alive," said an RSPCA spokesman.
"Thankfully she was found just in time and brought to the right place to receive veterinary treatment and care. I am delighted to say that the dog has continued to make a speedy recovery.
"She has been named Penny by vet staff and she will soon be going to a new home with a family member of one of the veterinary staff."
Penny, who is thought to be around three years old, is now alert, she's eating well and is eager to make friends.
