I Found It Amazing How Animals Can Change Your Life

ADVERTISEMENT

I’m a 19-years-old girl from Slovenia. I decided to tell you my story.

I wasn’t just a typical teen. I was a girl that felt lonely, had low self-esteem because in my young age I wasn’t very pretty. I was captured in my own dark world of sadness, that nobody could understand, my father drank a lot of alcohol, we had a lot of anger in our house, school was my nightmare, two of the most important family members, which I had trust, passed away. I had a boyfriend who forced me to do many things, so I also became anorexic. Nobody believed I would get better.

But… Even the saddest girl can’t stay sad if her partner is a dog. All the animals which I’m surrounded by, are my PASSION, MY LOVE, MY EVERYTHING. I turned better, and now I’m happy and healthy. I owe these animals everything, even my life, because they saved mine.
