Jenny and Jim Desmond recognize a thing or two regarding rescuing animals; they run the Liberia Monkey Rescue in West Africa.

When Jenny was driving along the streets of a remote town in Liberia one day she spotted a small fur baby in dire need of help.

She drove the dying puppy, called Snafu, back to the shelter and Jenny and her husband gave her the clinical attention she needed.

But Snafu remained in poor shape, not just was she starving, but had infections and worms so they kept a close watch on her, unsure if she would certainly make it.

Within days her eyes became brighter and her skin started to improve so the couple chose Snafu prepared to be introduced to the other sanctuary residents.

Little did they know simply how well she would get on with the other residents.

The chimpanzees instantly fell in love with Snafu and not only loved her and helped her but were always on hand to be her enjoyable playmates.

As Snafu got bigger and stronger the monkeys continued to watch on her however could no longer cuddle this cute puppy as they had actually done.

When Snafu was all recovered Jenny found her a permanently home with her nieces in Colorado.

She’s currently in a loving home with 2 sisters and a mom and dad that like her dearly and it’s all thanks to a shelter that cares and some loving chimpanzees.
