When a woman working as a food delivery woman said goodbye to her 14-year-old dog in December 2021, she never thought she would fall in love with another dog so quickly. Just a few weeks after the death of her beloved quadruped, a scared little shih-poo appeared on her way and changed her life forever.
I noticed this dog running down the street in front of me. – says a woman who prefers to remain anonymous.
She quickly parked nearby to find the scared furry
He was so small … Considering my newly wounded heart after losing my own furry baby, I didn't want to leave him there because it would be too dangerous for him. – she admitted.
It quickly turned out that the woman and the dog were an unusual combination
When we looked into each other's eyes, I said, “Come here, buddy.” He immediately ran up to me and jumped into my arms. It was the moment when I realized that he had been looking for me all his life and finally found me.
The woman tried to find the owner of the dog, but without success. The quadruped also did not have a micro-chip. A close vet inspection revealed that the 3-year-old fur coat she named Stitch was healthy. Only his coat was not in the best condition.
After spending a week with him, without any trace of the owner, I started cutting his hair. It was the moment when I realized how much she looks like my late Lela. At one point, I burst into tears when I looked at him. I hugged him tenderly then.
Despite being similar to Lela, it took some work to make Stitch feel safe
He was a little skittish at first and wasn't sure how to play with toys. Fortunately, everything changed over time. Now she loves to bring us her toys and play with us. He has finally become the most beloved dog in the world and brings a lot of joy to our lives.
And although the woman still misses Lela, she is grateful for the time she spent with her as well as for the second chance she got with Stitch
The similarity between them is amazing. Stitch desperately needed love and proper care, and I desperately needed help mending my broken heart. We healed together. – she added.
