Animals that we find on the street either could be strays or abandoned. Sadly, there are many reasons why people abandon their pets.
Some irresponsible pet owners buy their pets on the spur of the moment, only to discover that they are too expensive to maintain. There are also times when their pet has an excessive number of offspring and the owners are unable to care for them all. It’s possible that an unlucky one will be born in that litter. All of these factors could lead to the abandonment of a pet.
Shannon is a member of the staff at a local shelter, and she is passionate about what she does because she adores dogs. When she is successful in rescuing one, she is overjoyed.
She came across something unexpected one day. According to the footage captured by the shelter’s security cameras, a truck arrived in the middle of the night and a man exited. The man was carrying a box and decided to dump it in the parking lot of the shelter. He must have assumed there were no cameras in the area.
Shannon was the one who discovered what was inside the box the next day. Unfortunately, there was a small puppy inside the box, and it was in a terrible state. The small puppy appeared to have given up on life. Shannon recognized the need for medical assistance right away.
Shannon decided to help the puppy as much as she could after her heart broke for it. She not only took the dog to the clinic, but she also decided to foster it. Jiminy Cricket, she reasoned, would be the most appropriate name for it.
Jiminy Cricket had to be taken to the clinic for treatment and observation. He had a lot of wounds that needed to be healed. Shannon was finally able to bring Jiminy Cricket home after only a few days.
Shannon began to fall in love with Jiminy Cricket during the weeks she had him. And she quickly came to the conclusion that adopting him would be the best option for both of them. Both of them are now living happily ever after.
Jiminy gained weight and is now an absolutely wholesome and healthy dog. Though reserved with other people he doesn’t know, he’s a sweetheart with his family – both his owner Shannon and his puppies, and there are plenty of pictures to prove it!
