One day, a restaurant owner in South Korea saw a homeless dog outside her door. When she checked on the pup, she realized it was sick and that it badly needed help. She tried to gain its trust by offering some food, and she did it for months, but she was barely able to get close to the dog.
The stray dog came back to the restaurant every day and waited for the lady to bring out some food. But while it gladly accepted the food she offered, the dog was too nervous to let the woman come too close. And so, it waited until she was a few feet away before eating the food.
The kind lady knew it would take time before she’s able to completely gain the dog’s trust so she continued to feed the animal. She also wanted the pup to feel better so she bought some medicine and mixed it with the food. But while she always welcomed the poor animal in her yard, she didn’t understand why the dog always left after eating. And so, she found a way to determine why and asked help from the local rescuers.
The dog stayed in the same spot in the thicket across the street. She sat there almost the entire day, and when it’s mealtime, she crossed the six-lane road and walked to the restaurant. No matter how many trucks and buses passed by, she risked her life just to get to the other side of the street.
Curious and befuddled at the same time, the rescuers gathered more information, and they came to the conclusion that the dog had possibly given birth in the area. They searched everywhere, but they didn’t find any sign of a puppy. Still, they were convinced there was at least one. And so, they continued to follow her until she stopped in front of a pile of logs.
Surprisingly, two puppies came out and snuggled with the dog as she lay on the ground. She nursed them and the puppies started to suckle milk from her. But even the tiniest noise frightened them so the mama dog stood up and walked away while her babies went back to hiding.
Concerned for everyone’s safety, the rescuers agreed it was time to get the furry family to safety. They searched and found one of the puppies in a nearby construction site the following morning and the other one in a bus station. Later on, they set up a huge cage and lure the mama dog inside to catch her.
Once safe, the dogs continued to see the vet for a check-up. Besides their skin condition, they were all in good shape and all they needed was rest. They were then discharged within a few days and the kind restaurant owner fostered them until they found their new homes.
