Guardianship in Grief: A Heartfelt Quest to Secure a Canine Companion’s Last Haven
A homeless man’s desperate plea for his beloved dog is touching hundreds of hearts. His tears of pain move even the hardest heart, which is why the networks have not been able to stop reacting to a situation like this.
Certainly, many times we take the things we receive in life for granted. And now, after having lived through the worst of a pandemic, even having a roof over your head can become a luxury for some.
That’s what so many homeless people and streets face.
That is why the drama of all beings: human and furry, who, due to the scourge of poverty and social injustice, are forced to wander the streets, in the midst of hunger and loneliness, is a harsh reality that we cannot understand. can leave you indifferent. No matter how common it is in our eyes.
One of the countries where these heartbreaking scenes abound every day is Brazil.
It is the story that has recently moved enormously on social networks, causing a wave of reactions.
It is about a poor homeless man, who has made enormous efforts to take care of his dog, his companion in adventure and misery.
It was a woman, Eliane Rocha, a resident of Santos, Brazil, and an animal lover, who, upon seeing him on the street, could not help but be moved and stopped to talk to the beggar.
She said that the dog has lived with the man for 2 years, when he was just a puppy. She always did everything to get food for both of them, but now with the lack of tourists, he no longer knows what to do to take care of his dog the way he deserves and he is truly devastated.
He has come to think that the fairest thing for the puppy is to give him the opportunity to find a home where he is loved and does not go hungry, but just thinking about it breaks his heart.
This is the image of the good man that Eliane shared on social networks
This man lives on the street and when I passed by him, he begged me to take his dog because he had no other conditions to take care of him (I have a dog and two cats, with no condition to get more),” Eliane wrote in her publication.
The dog is not neutered, he is very playful. He keeps him with a collar because otherwise he could be run over, he has no idea of the danger. He wants to give the puppy to someone else, someone who really knows how to take care of him and give him the love he deserves. He even cried, he made me very sorry for the two of them,” Eliane added.
The really sad thing is that the little dog knows no more human than the homeless man, and it is his entire life. And if they separate, the man knows that the furry boy would suffer a lot, but he has no other option.
Eliane has asked that you write to her through a message on her social profile, in case anyone is interested in adopting the dog. She would break this poor homeless man’s heart, but she would be happy for him to be spoiled.
It is very unfortunate that these humble people, who within their few possibilities, give so much love to these defenseless creatures, are forced to separate due to poverty and few opportunities. We sincerely hope that your luck changes so that you do not have to say goodbye.
That a person with such a good heart has to find himself between a rock and a hard place breaks our soul. Let’s help this good man fulfill his hard wish.
