When a senior rescue dog named Ziggy first came into Isabella Mann’s life, he was a shy dog who was suffering from several health issues. Thankfully, Mann decided that she was able to offer Ziggy a second chance in a new home. Recently, she posted a video showing his transformation to her TikTok page. Mann hopes that Ziggy’s transformation will inspire others to open their hearts and homes to rescue dogs, according to statements that she gave to Newsweek.

The TikTok video opens with a shot of Ziggy when Mann first met him. The senior dog slowly and stiffly walks toward the camera. At that time, Ziggy was suffering from joint pain, had serious dental issues, and was underweight. However, veterinary care and love helped resolve many of the senior pup’s issues. Slowly, Ziggy adjusted to his new home. Now he is an active, curious dog. His transformation can be seen in the second part of the video.
Viewers loved seeing how much happier the senior rescue dog looks now. “I love seeing a pup’s confidence grow,” commented TikTok user Ashley. Another user agreed, writing “He looks so much happier now though.” Currently, the video of Ziggy has been liked over 168,000 times on TikTok.
