Chayanne and Her Special Needs Dog Rescue Journey

Chayanne and her husband embarked on a heartwarming journey when they rescued a special needs dog from Second Chance Farm in Granbury, Texas. This remarkable dog, Lizzie, was deaf and communicated her vibrant personality through expressive eye and facial movements. Their journey with Lizzie quickly gained traction as they shared her story on TikTok, where their videos went viral. One video alone garnered 17 million views, while another reached 10 million views.

Inspired by Lizzie’s story, Chayanne penned a children’s book titled “Lizzie and Axel: Forever Friends,” beautifully illustrated to narrate Lizzie’s journey. The book is crafted to help children navigate the emotional terrain of losing a pet.

Chayanne and her husband didn’t stop there. They continued their mission by adopting another special needs dog who is blind, demonstrating their unwavering commitment to providing a loving home for animals in need.

Chayanne expressed her gratitude towards the SBDC, stating, “I didn’t have a business background and the SBDC was really helpful to verify with me that I was setting up legally and meeting all the required licensing and regulation.”
