Taxi drivers often find things that passengers have left behind in their cabs. But not usually a dog!
Mysterious box
The driver had taken the passenger to a shopping centre. After they exited the car and went on their way, the driver realised the person had left a box behind.
Thinking that the passenger would return any moment once they discovered they’d left the box, the driver decided to wait for them. But no one returned.
So, the driver decided to look in the box. That’s when he made a shocking discovery.
Inside the box was a little Maltese-type dog with a note explaining how to care for it. The taxi driver couldn’t believe his eyes.
Forgotten or abandoned?
Hoping the dog’s owner would still return, the driver waited patiently for over an hour. But no one came. It soon became clear that the dog’s owner would never return.
The driver didn’t know what to do, so he posted a video on social media giving his number so the dog’s owner could call him if they’d made a mistake. But it seems unlikely. Here's the driver's video:
Fortunately, the video went viral, generating a lot of support for the dog, so even if no one claims him, there’s sure to be a family out there who will give this dog the loving home he deserves.
