Wholeheartedly agree with your sentiments about human capacity to inflict cruelty on animals. Our last dog but one was a sad case, and was also a rescue dog. She was so scared when we visited the kennel that she wouldn't look anyone in the eye, but then she licked Mrs Tiggie's hand, and that was all it took. She was a Lurcher, which can be timid anyway, but my heart broke when I picked up a stick to throw for her when we got her home, and she just cowered on the ground expecting a beating. She had a great life with us though.
Your girl looks gorgeous, and I'm sure it will be a rewarding experience to rehabilitate her, although no doubt there'll be problems along the way...
