Champi the dog wasn't even recognizable when animal rescue found her on the side of the road in Solapur, India. She was basically stuck to the ground because she was covered in so much tar and dirt.

It took four days to clean Champi properly. They had to remove the tar carefully, so they used vegetable and coconut oil to try to cause as little pain as possible. Champi's transformation depicted in the video footage was an incredible achievement!
She went from being a small, scared dog covered in tar, to now being a happy go lucky dog. You can now see her brown and white fur, because her skin is healed!
