A 12-year-old boy from Mexico, Andrés, was heartbroken as he was forced to part with his beloved puppy. Wanting to keep him safe, he left the young dog on the doorstep of Refugio Xollin, a rescue organization in Mexico, hoping they would protect him.
When the shelter staff checked the cardboard box left outside, they discovered a pit bull puppy along with a stuffed toy and a handwritten note. The note explained that the boy had to surrender his puppy because his father planned to sell him and frequently mistreated him. Desperate to protect his furry friend, Andrés made the difficult decision to leave him at the shelter’s doorstep.
The story quickly spread on Facebook, where many people praised the boy’s brave and selfless act, offering their support.
The shelter named the puppy Rene and discovered that he was suffering from parasites and had minor fractures in his tail. Thankfully, the dedicated shelter team is ensuring he receives the best medical care and attention.
After the story went viral, hundreds of people expressed interest in adopting Rene, guaranteeing that he will soon find a loving forever home. All thanks to Andrés’ courageous decision to save his puppy!
