The sad truth is that dogs who are underweight or emaciated often wind up in animal shelters. It pains me to see creatures endure suffering until they are almost unrecognizable.
Despite being mistreated, some animals still have affection and trust for people, while others shrink in fear when they see a rescuer. It is not worthwhile to periodically reflect on what the latter have experienced.
It seems inconceivable to me that I could ever wish to cause harm to an animal. Furthermore, I find it inconceivable that anyone could derive any sort of pleasure from doing this.
That being said, I think dogs have a sixth sense that lets them tell the difference between good and terrible people.
Individuals who care with animals understand the significance of giving a neglected animal the chance to make contact. While playing and petting a dog to reassure it that you are not a threat is natural, it’s not always the greatest idea to do so.
Some folks just find it incomprehensible that a dog that has experienced cruelty might be surprised by a stranger.
Edie, the mixed-breed abandoned dog, would be euthanized in a few hours. She was terrified of people, and it had been a very long time since anyone had showed her any concern. Her fur was disheveled and she appeared to be severely malnourished.
You had to be an actual animal lover to give Edie another chance.
Watching the initial part of the video is difficult. Edie doesn’t know what to do because she is so afraid. She shakes her whole body and lets out a bark because she thinks this man is a threat.
But in the end, the man in the video is able to seize Edie and stop her from running away. He can now be near her.
The creation of a trust agreement proceeds swiftly after that. Edie begins to see that his intentions are not malicious; rather, they are to assist her. She virtually shows the moment she realizes she won’t be put down any longer.
Watch Edie’s reaction in the video below as she learns she’s been saved:
Let us take this opportunity to express our gratitude to those who dedicate their lives to meeting the needs of animals.
Without all of you, the world would be a much worse place for our defenseless four-legged pals.Tell others about this movie so that more people can see Edie’s incredible transformation.
Uncle left with third-degree burns after running into burning building to save 8-year-old girl
A Washington man is rightfully being hailed a hero after charging into a burning home to save his eight-year-old niece.
Reports detail how 20-year-old Derrick Byrd suffered second and third-degree burns on his face, back, and arms, having rushed into the building when he became aware his niece was trapped.
Speaking to KOMO-TV, he said: “Even though I got burnt, I really didn’t care, though. I’d rather get burnt than her. She’s young. She’s still got a lot of stuff going for her. She’s a good kid.”
The fire, at a home in Aberdeen, Washington is believed to have started while Byrd and six other family members were inside, including his sister, Kayla, and her three children.
Byrd caught his nephews, Junior and Royce, when they jumped from a window on the second floor. His eight-year-old niece Mercedes, however, was too afraid to jump after having watched Kayla fall from the roof.
Without thinking, Byrd dashed back into the house to rescue her. Within moments, he could feel the flames on him.
“I could feel it burning me,” he explained.
“I got her and took my shirt off and put it around her face so she wouldn’t breathe in any smoke and I just carried her out as fast as I could.”
True hero
What’s more, despite suffering injuries, Byrd said he would do it again if he had to.
“I’d run back in there and do it again even if I got burnt worse or died.”
Commenting on all those dubbing him a hero, he simply replied: “I can’t say a hero. I’d just say for my niece and nephews, I wasn’t going to let them die.”
What a genuine hero Derrick Byrd truly is. In moments like that, people’s true colours are shown, and Derrick can certainly be proud of his.
