The day was Tuesday, and fortunately, on this day, I came home very early from school. After reaching, I saw a puppy on our veranda, shivering. Then I went close to him and saw that one of his legs was badly injured. Maybe a car went over his leg?
Immediately I went to the shop to buy Dettol and food for him.
After returning, I fed the pup and covered him with a cloth to keep him warm. His condition was so bad that I had to cover him with heavier clothes at night and put a mosquito coil around him.
I wanted to take him to the hospital, so I requested many people to help me as I didn’t know where was the veterinary hospital. Also, I am very scared of dogs. π But I was determined to do something for him. So the following day, I convinced one of my brothers to take me to the hospital. But I was supposed to go halfway with him, so I could go alone the remaining way, but by God’s grace, I met a friend who took me to the hospital.
The puppy needed to be treated for at least three days, and the doctor asked me whether I could regularly visit, as my home was so far from the hospital. But I readily agreed to the proposal. Then for three days, I went to the hospital on my bicycle for the puppy’s treatment. The amazing thing was I got free services, and the doctors were happy too.
Now the dog is under my supervision, and I am taking care of it.βΊοΈ
I am feeling so happy that I did something for him.π
Takeaway
All we need to have is the determination to do something good for any living being.π
