One day, I saw a dog lying on the sidewalk. It looked hurt and sad. Its back legs didn’t move, and it had a big sore on its head. The dog’s eyes were full of tears, like it was asking for help without saying a word. People walked by, but I couldn’t ignore those eyes. I had to stop.
I knelt down and spoke softly to the dog. It was scared at first, but it looked at me, wondering if I was a friend. I knew it needed help fast, or it might not make it. I ran to my car, got a blanket, and wrapped it gently around the dog. It made a small sound but let me pick it up.
When I lifted the dog, it felt heavier than I thought, and it was shaking. I put it in my car, and it rested its head on me, maybe feeling a little safe for the first time in a long time. At the animal hospital, the doctor said the dog’s back legs were paralyzed from a bad injury, and its head sore was very sick.
But there was good news—the doctor said the dog could get better with care! That made me so happy. Over the next few weeks, the dog got medicine and special exercises. Little by little, it started to heal. The sore went away, and the dog even started to trust people again.
Since its legs couldn’t move, the dog got a tiny wheelchair to help it get around. The first time it wagged its tail, I knew it was feeling happy again. Soon, I brought the dog home. It zoomed around the yard in its wheelchair, exploring everything with a big smile.
The dog still has scars, but its eyes are bright now, full of joy instead of sadness. This taught me something important: every animal deserves a chance to be loved. This dog, who was once so hurt and alone, now races around and shows everyone that kindness can make even the hardest days turn into something wonderful.
