      @@bortusisaac5572 , there is no excuse to leave an animal on the street. There are some animal shelters that don't have a fee (I dropped off my fur baby to one and even if I had to drive a reasonable amount of miles away to get her to a different location I would have) or worse case scenario, walk in an leave them there which I would've done if they said no. They'll have the resources to find a place if they are full.

      It’s sad. My friend’s most recent cat adopted herself. Jumped right into the car while she was out somewhere random af working on set. Microchipped and everything…. The vet still hasn’t heard back from her humans, and that was 3 (ish?) months ago

I had to give up my dog well not me technically as I was 12 but anyway my parents sent him to foster care not an animal shelter as they didn’t want to increase his odds of being put down. But yeah there is no excuse to leave them like that, ever.@@criminalsurveillance

      Just be careful young bro!....many of these females are out here looking for a nice guy to take advantage of! Don't let your kindness be taken for weakness... the Bible gives many warnings to men about dealing with the wrong kinds of females. That statement of "a father who stepped up" is a approval seeking statement and part of entitlement mind state that modern women want men to have that benefits female foolishness and disloyalty. Modern women will have babies with random dudes and then expect the next man to just step up! Don't fall for it!!!

      I don't know about all shelters, but the 1 local to me charges to drop off animals 😢 and they are very biased towards Pitties 😢😢. I found a beautiful Rottweiler walking my neighborhood,took her home, kept her for a week while I walked to every place within a mile trying to find her owner, checked lost dog ads, etc. My landlord found out and told me she had to go or I would lose my apt. When I called the cops cause I couldn't get a hold of the dogwarden, the cop said they could actually charge ME for abandoning the dog cause I had her for a week! Luckily, the cop was a dog guy and saw how sweet the old girl was ( personally, I think she was used as a breeder, her time was up, so they dumped her) and he took her w/out giving me any tickets or worse. I called the shelter a week later, and thankfully!!! someone saw how sweet she was and adopted her the day after the cop took her ( maybe it was him??) I hope this man and his new girl have a long and happy life together!!!

      She was probably dumped. Her fur had clearly been neglected for a while but she was friendly and didn't seem underweight, so she had probably been left there recently. The fact that there were no missing dog posters and the owners on record with the microchip company never responded definitely sounds like she was dumped.

    He reminds me of a childhood friend of mine. Whenever we went to explore the neighborhood parks and dogs would gravitate towards him. It was interesting because he happened so often. It was like he had his own language with dogs. Eventually he started showing up at home with all these dogs and at one point he had 4 dogs much to the dismay of his mom but he took such good care of them. I could never understand how he connected with dogs so easily. We used to tease him and tell him he was part wolf. He took it as a compliment.

    You’re a hero for bringing those abandoned animals to a shelter! I bet you are your dog’s hero as well! 💜
    Also, you might be surprised about how many pet owners love their pets like they are their child, and call themselves their “Mommy” or “Daddy” (probably only in private).

      I've been known to refer to myself as "daddy" with my dog in public. I am proud to have a 95 lb goofball who is as much a "social butterfly and "attention hound" as he is dog.

      Nah, not in private. I call my dogs my kids in public, and refer to myself as mom. My adult kids refer to the dogs as my kids and refer to me as mom when interacting with my dogs too. They do the same with their animals.

    My heart breaks for that little dog. It blows my mind that some people can look at a lovely little lady like that and just abandon her in the woods. Most domesticated dogs can’t fend for themselves, especially not a little poodle mix like her! I am so impressed by the man’s initiative and willingness to step up and take in that sweet little dog. But it just goes to show, if you no longer want an animal, OR cannot take care of it, it’s okay to surrender it to a humane society or rehome the poor thing.
