The world may seem a scary place for a homeless puppy. After all, they are entirely reliant on kindness and care from humans, who are not that reliable.
After all of his siblings passed away, his only chance for survival was to be rescued. Thankfully, that is precisely what happened! The team from Love Furry Friends(LFF) was alerted to a puppy living at a homeless campsite in a Ukrainian forest.
They immediately went looking and could not believe what they found. The homeless man and the adorable puppy were able to huddle together for warmth.
“When we got closer, we found a homeless man and a puppy lying, warming each other,” the group said. “The man told us that there were eight puppies, but only one of the whole family was able to survive.”
The man had also been feeding the pup whenever possible. The man had formed a bond with the pup, now named Johnny.
But he surrendered him to the rescue team as he knew there was no way he could provide for the dog. Of course, the team from Love Furry Friends was grateful for the kind man’s help.
A rescue team found the pup with a homeless man in a Ukrainian forest. The pair were huddling together, keeping each other warm. The puppy was one of eight, but all of his siblings had passed away from an unknown illness.
Thankfully Johnny, named puppy, was free from any viruses or infections. Considering the conditions the pup had been living in and that his siblings had all passed away, Johnny was in surprisingly good health.
He was vaccinated and treated for parasites. Poor little Johnny had been hungry for such a long time. He was greedily swallowing down food without even chewing. It would take some time for his little body to adapt.
The vet advised that Johnny would need to increase his food intake gradually because he had been consuming such a tiny amount of food. His diet would take some time to become normal, as his body needed time to adjust.
What a truly heartwarming story! The kindness of the homeless man’s heart is so touching. Not everyone would have done the same.
Sadly, there are approximately 734,240 people living on the streets each night in Ukraine. And most of these homeless people receive little to no help, mostly fending for themselves.
The fact that someone doing it so tough can still have such a kind heart is truly inspiring. We hope Johnny – and the man who helped him – will find all the happiness they both deserve!
