Nicknamed Snot Monster, Millie, had undergone surgery after she was attacked and abused on the streets several times.
Dog attackers left her face disfigured and shot on her face multiple times in an attempt to euthanise her. As a result of the torture, her tongue was left perpetually hanging.
Look, when you see catastrophic injuries like that, sometimes it is in the best interests of the dog to have them put to sleep. Certainly I know the foundation and Kasey supports that. In this case, this was a dog that had some primary treatment, showed [a] massive response to that therapy, and that’s when the charity got involved. And so they’ve just followed on with that and tried to give this dog the best possible treatment. What we have now is this dog that, you can see, she’s so affectionate, she’s very sweet, she can smell, she’s got her sense of smell, and she’s enjoying life. She does have a good quality of life.
People were heartbroken and shocked to hear about the torture she went through on the show but, adorable Millie and her story captured millions of hearts and invoked hope.
After the episode aired, many took to social media to talk about Millie and her story of survival.
Despite all the trauma that she has been through, Millie is recovering well and is getting along alright with the other dogs, who she is quite fond of.
She is already a huge star on Instagram with over 76.3k followers who adore her.
