He Was Abandoned on the Mountain for Several Years

As an animal lover, I have witnessed my fair share of neglected and abused animals, but Snow’s predicament was among the worst I had ever encountered. He was quite underweight and had bleeding ears, but his tail was wagging with excitement. I was heartbroken to see him in such a pitiful state because it was clear that he had only received enough to survive.

It was clear to me that I couldn’t abandon him. That very moment, I swore to Snow that I would do all in my ability to assist him, no matter what it took. I was unhappy when the owner first said I couldn’t adopt Snow. If the owner answered no, I wouldn’t be able to take Snow with me, so I wasn’t sure what to say or do. My cheeks began to tear up as I became overcome with emotion.

However, a remarkable event occurred all of a sudden. Given how much I adored Snow, the owner felt sorrow for me and said, “Okay, you can take him.” I felt a wave of relief and joy go over me. I could not believe that I would soon be able to provide Snow with the loving home he deserved.

We had just begun our adventure together when we brought Snow home. He had certainly experienced trauma and abuse in the past, it was clear. Even though he had a troubled past, he was still a beautiful lover even though I would lift my hand and he would quiver. He brought me much joy every morning when he would enter my room while wagging his tail.

Snow started to heal as she waited and was patient. His demeanor and reliability improved. He had a gift for interacting with people and showed unconditional love to everyone he encountered. He was obviously appreciative of his newfound freedom as well as the protection and security he now experienced.

Snow was qualified to travel to his ideal home after passing his blood tests, but alas, no one offered to adopt him. But I knew that whoever met him would fall in love with him, just as I had. I could not bear the idea of him not finding a loving home because he had grown to be my best friend.

I was inspired every day by Snow’s resiliency and unwavering capacity for love in spite of his past. From the thin, neglected dog I first met, he had improved dramatically. To help him find a forever home, I made the decision to post his story on social media and with neighborhood animal rescue groups.

The ideal family subsequently offered to adopt Snow after several months of patiently waiting. Just as I had done, they were captivated by his tale and fell madly in love with him. Although saying goodbye to my wonderful friend was difficult, I knew he was going to a home that was secure and loving forever.

I’m overcome with a sense of satisfaction and joy as I think back on our adventure together. Snow’s life needed the love and care he needed, and I am happy that I was able to give it to him. The tale of Snow serves as a testament to both the strength of love and the adaptability of animals.

It has taught me that, regardless of how hopeless a circumstance may seem, miracles can occur and lives can be improved with compassion, tenacity, and a dash of optimism. I will always have a soft spot in my heart for Snow, and I am honored to have shared in his joyous search for a loving, permanent home.
