TOPEKA (KSNT) - Two dogs have endured a rough journey wandering the streets of Topeka. The two dogs, formerly known as Honey and Bear, have made a remarkable recovery after being adopted. Mabel and Atticus, as the dogs are now known as, were found on the streets in harsh conditions and brought to the Helping Hands Humane Society (HHHS) in Topeka. Grace Clinton, a spokeswoman for the Human Society, tells us what happened. "When they first came to our shelter, it was on August 21st," Clinton said. "They were brought in to us by a good Samaritan, a community member, who found them in pretty rough shape. It was pretty clear from the photos that a lot of people saw them on the internet that they were unwell."

"This particular strain they had wasn't contagious to other animals while they were here. But it did cause severe hair loss, infection, pus, scabbiness, and irritation on the skin. It was really itchy and painful for these dogs."  27 News talked to Jessica Haskins, the owner of Honey, now named Mabel, about how the recovery process is going. "When we first got her, it was two baths a week," Haskins said. "We still try and keep up with them, but her skin is completely cleared up; she’s cleared by the vet. She had to wear a sweater because she smelled really yeasty at first. But by the time we got her into the house, which was just two days after I met her, she was already that smell was gone and she now of course likes sweaters.” Haskins told us that Monday, Nov. 4, marked one month since Mabel's adoption. “Just everybody is so happy," Haskins said. "At first, of course, everyone telling you, you don’t need a dog, you don’t need a dog and all the downfalls of having another dog. But really, she’s just been such a positive for my whole family."

Atticus' owners are no strangers to Helping Hands because they have adopted from there before. Atticus' new owners said it didn't take long for Millie and Masie to warm up to him and vice versa.
