A dying dog gets to live her final days in a new home after she was adopted by a kindhearted shelter volunteer who saved her from euthanasia.

"It was love at first sight," Bill Baker of Lakeside Park, Kentucky, told ABC News. "In spite of all the adversity she has, she has a very sunny disposition. I think dogs can smile and she can smile. She can't see...but when I say 'Papa's here, Marcie!' she perks up and smiles and it just makes my day."

At the end of January, Baker said animal control brought in Marcie, who was reported as a stray roaming the neighborhood of Latonia, Kentucky.

"Her fur had been eaten off by fleas and she's also blind," Baker said. "She would've been euthanized."
