Fate can hold us the best surprises, even when we seem to think our dream plans are cut short by the most unexpected event.
This is what happened to Kiara Ijzendoorn and her family, while they were on vacation along a road in Crete, Greece.
Suddenly, they discovered a dog lying in the middle of the road unable to move. Kiara found out that the poor little dog was living in an abandoned place all alone and she knew he needed her immediate help.
His left leg was completely paralyzed and his spine was broken.
He could not ignore the need of cotton wool, so he returned to visit Kiara every day. In the days that followed, whenever Kiara returned to the barn, she would bring him something to eat and try to give the pup all the love he never received from any human.
The kind woman decided to name her baby Fos, which means “Bright” in Greek. It didn’t take long for Kiara to discover that Fos is an extremely affectionate and sweet dog. She was convinced that he deserved a second chance in life, so she did not hesitate to take him to a rescue organization.
There, a veterinarian examined him thoroughly and treated her severe injuries that had caused him so much suffering. But what hurt Kiara the most was that no one had been able to intervene before her to change his destiny.
In a way or another, Fos managed to steal Kiara’s heart, and she ended up adopting him to make him the darling of her home.
After the pup received all the care he needed, the vets broke the best of news to Kiara. It was just a matter of time and above all a lot of love for Fos to make a full recovery.
Fos flew with his new mother to the Netherlands, where he would finally find a roof and her happily ever after home.
The dog is currently still recovering from his broken spine but we are sure he is doing a lot better than he was in that old barn. And although Fos still has a long way to go, he lives very happily with his new family in Holland!
If Kiara hadn’t stopped to help Fos that day, she wouldn’t have such a great friend now, and the dog’s fate would have been certain death.
Sometimes the best things in life happen where you least expect it. Very soon Fos will be completely fine, now he only has to worry about enjoying his new life!
Share this great act of love for animals with all your friends! Surely, more than one will feel moved not to pass by any needy furry friend.
