She spotted a dog wandering outside her property.
The poor dog was all alone, with no owner in sight.
His greatest treasure
When she went outside to check on the dog, he kept his distance.
She could see clearly that the dog had no belongings, not even a collar. The only thing he was clutching tightly in his mouth was a soft toy.
It was the only thing the dog had with him from the day he was abandoned, a remnant of his former life in a home.
So, he was doing everything he could to protect it.
Gaining his trust
The young woman spoke softly to the dog, trying to coax him closer.
After a few attempts, she managed to give him a gentle stroke to reassure him.
She then contacted the local dog warden and a rescue centre to get help for the poor animal.
People online were deeply moved by the dog's rescue:
"I burst into tears. Please tell me you took that sweet baby home."
"He didn't want to leave that spot, he kept coming back, which tells me he was dumped there and didn't want to leave because he's waiting for his humans to come back."
" Okay, I'm crying all over again."
" The fact he was carrying the only thing he had left in the world."
We hope this lovely dog finds a new, loving forever home very soon!
