If there was only one way I could help any stray dog, it would be to make sure they all have enough to eat in their day-to-day lives.
Food is an aspect of our lives that we often take for granted, but there are ways we can help strays live a somewhat normal life before they are rescued, and it’s by giving them nourishment.
This poor dog was so hungry that he spent the day looking for something to eat, but his search was in vain.
However, not everything was so doom and gloom for him. Soon enough, a group of rescuers were informed about his situation, and they decided to help.

Just as they noticed her, they were appalled by the fact that she was trying to eat from the scraps tourists left behind in the park.
She kept searching for things to eat, but there just wasn’t enough for her to get a proper meal. However, things were about to change.
The rescuers tried to approach the exhausted pup, but she would back away anytime they got too close, as she had no way of knowing their intentions.
Anytime they tried to give her some food, she moved away. It was going to be a difficult rescue this way.
They realized they would have to ease her up a little bit. They started by dropping some food near her and leaving.
She usually just took the food and left. This was the first small step. The next day, they brought her something more to eat and left it near a kennel to see how she would react.
An Important Step
Naturally, she would have her meal but did not enter the kennel. However, the big change this time around was the fact that she started approaching her rescuers.
She didn’t seem reluctant at all anymore and would run laps around them. They slowly tried cuddling her and noticed that she was enjoying it.
After she was relaxed enough, the rescuers decided to take the pup and put her in a kennel. And, they were finally successful.
They then drove to a veterinarian clinic where she would receive the best medical attention. The vets did a full checkup and came back with promising results.
Even though she was malnourished, she did not have any serious illness. She was suffering from a mild fever due to sleeping outside, but nothing too serious.
So, the rescuers decided to take her home and treat her from there. She would receive a nice, warm bath to get rid of all the fleas and things were finally shaping up for the better.
Despite the fact that she loved her new humans, she was still terrified of everyone else and only trusted them.
The veterinarians advised the rescuers to play more with her as it would likely help her overcome the trauma she endured on the streets.
She Has Changed Completely
So, her new favorite humans decided to buy her some warm clothes, and they are constantly putting in the effort to make sure she enjoys herself all the time.
They even organized camping trips so the pup could explore new environments and find new places to play.
With time, she is becoming happier and more outgoing. She is also a lot more friendly now to other people, which is just beautiful to see.
Her weight has also gone up, and her foster parents continuously take advice from the veterinarian to make sure she stays healthy.
Because she spent so much time with her rescuers, they fell in love with her and realized that they couldn’t just give her up.
So, they decided to adopt her themselves. This was absolutely amazing news. I am so glad to see she has found her perfect humans and is living the amazing life she deserves.
