OGDEN, Utah (ABC 4 News) – A chihuahua named Hope has passed away just weeks after suffering burns to 25% of her body. Hope was found burning at a campsite in Weber County.
A good samaritan pulled the small dog from the flames and brought her to the Brookside Animal Hospital in Ogden.
True Hearts Rescue founder Nicole Hellstrom and another foster mom had been caring for the dog around the clock, trying to help her recover and find a good home.
Hope lost her battle early Wednesday morning. Her doctors believe she died from the immense pain.
True Hearts Rescue is raising money to help Weber County deputies find the people responsible for Hope's injuries and untimely death. If you would like to donate, click
