You can talk a lot about finding positivity and good people to convince others and yourself that the world isn’t that bad of a place. But unfortunately, it isn’t always as bright as we think it is. Let’s admit, mostly it is that way because of certain people. And, this is what leads to situations when tough decisions are made with a broken heart.
In this article, we are talking about the hearts of a 12-year old boy and his puppy. The incident took place when an animal shelter home called Xollin found a puppy along with a letter at their doorstep.
The shelter home shared it on their Facebook page saying: “Someone left this dog at the door of the shelter, inside a box, with a plush toy and a note. The note was written by a kid and he explained his dad was always beating the dog and was planning to sell him. So, in such a state of despair, he left the dog here to save him.”
In response to this post, people from different parts of the world showed their will to help by donating, and adopting the adorable puppy.
The shelter home showed their concern about the health of the puppy as they stated in the post: “We need to take the dog to the vet so he can check his tail, which apparently is fractured. We also need to remove parasites and get him a check-up. This means more expenses and works for us, but luckily the dog will be safe.”
The letter from the boy said: “My name is Andrés and I’m 12 years old. My mom and I decided to leave him to you. All of this is behind my dad’s back because he was thinking of selling him. But he is always beating and kicking the dog. Once he kicked him so hard that his little tail got injured. I hope you can help him and take care of him. Here is a plush toy so he won’t forget me.”
The shelter home named the dog Rene and started looking for the right family for his adoption. They had a tough job of deciding the right family after receiving over 300 messages from the interested people.
“If you all opened your heart and your home to all, and not only to this dog, all our animals in the shelter would have been already adopted twice. Thanks to the few people who came to the shelter offering their help to protect other animals suffering abuse or being abandoned in our district and surroundings,” the shelter home stated in their Facebook post.
