Dogs that live on the streets have an especially difficult life. One dog was so malnourished that he couldn’t even walk straight. A man saw this dog and knew he had to help. He scooped the dog up and placed him on his shoulder. The dog felt immediately comfortable and grateful. The dog fell asleep in the comfort of the man’s arms.

He took the dog home and gave the dog a bath. He was surprised at how white the dog’s coat actually was because it was so matted and dirty before the bath that you could not tell.

Dogs have great instincts to know when they are in a safe place.
