Sometimes fate brings us to the most unexpected places – and in these places, we meet people who would change our lives.
One dog wandered off and came across a home in the middle of nowhere, seeking refuge from the hard stray life. The house owner did not expect a dog to come to his front porch – and the unexpected meeting led to a beautiful friendship!
Joe Sullivan owns a house in a remote area in northern Mississippi. As far as he knows, their home is miles away from the nearest road or other establishments, so it shocked him to find a stray dog at his front porch. Joe carefully approached the Pit Bull and saw that she was severely hurt.
Joe, seeing the vulnerable state of the stray, decided to help her. He carried her to a lounge chair where she rested her head down on his lap. Joe saw how exhausted the dog was. He felt as though the poor thing went through so much before she made her way to his front porch.
According to Joe, the dog sustained a lot of wounds – mostly scratches and bite marks. He did not know how the stray got the said scars. He just knew the dog needed some medical attention. Joe carried the dog and drove her to the Animal Clinic of Tippah County in Ripley, Mississippi.
At the animal clinic, doctors treated the Pit Bull’s wounds. They also dewormed her. According to the vets, the dog probably got hit by a car before – which led her to suffer nerve damage and a fractured hip. Joe asked the vets to give the dog all the treatment she needed, and soon enough, she got back on her feet.
It is natural for Joe to adopt the dog. According to him, he knew he needed to take care of her. Joe named her Betsy – and officially welcomed her to their household. Aside from her new human family, Betsy now enjoys the company of her dog siblings. It was luck when Betsy wandered to Joe’s front porch. Now she gets to enjoy a comfortable life she only dreamt of before.
