We found Lina with injuries to both back legs, likely from a hunting trap. After a CT scan in Zagreb, we were told nothing could be done—but Lina didn’t let that stop her. She healed on her own, and today you’d never guess she once struggled to walk.

She’s four years old, calm, on the smaller side, and the most gentle soul. Affectionate and quiet, she melts into your arms when you pet her—honestly, the only thing missing is a purr.

Good on a leash, friendly with other dogs, and a perfect half-couch potato. While the others push their way forward, Lina stays in the background, wagging her tail and just watching, hoping for a little love.
