One of the kindest humans imaginable had to make a difficult phone call. He called Hope For Paws and told them about two homeless Pit Bulls he had been caring for near his home, writes ilovemydogsomuch

He couldn’t adopt them himself because he already had a puppy and was too afraid they wouldn’t get along well. The male Pit Bull is afraid of humans and it took him a long time to trust the gentle man.

When the rescuers arrive from Hope For Paws and the Good Samaritan leads them to the dogs, the female dog steps forward, right toward them, and happily greets her new friends. She eats her snack and wags her tail. The male dog stays in the background. He is curious but very scared. The kind human explains the situation further.

He loves the two dogs, the rescuers later named “George and Irene”. He wanted so badly to take them home with him. In fact, he feels because the male dog has such a hard time with people and only trusts him, he is betraying him by allowing the rescuers to take him.

The gentle man begins to cry. “I feel so horrible. I’ve earned his trust and now I’m stabbing him in the back. He pats his head and continues, “I’m sorry, brother. I’m so sorry, okay? It’s really a touching and heartbreaking scene. He knows the two dogs will have a better life, but it’s so conflicting to be separated from them. He loves them dearly and has fed and loved them as much as he can.

While George and Irene lived on the streets, the neighborhood kids threw rocks at them and called them names. It was no way for any dog ​​to live. The kind man knows this, it breaks his heart to see them go.

The rescuers bring both dogs into the vehicle. Irene is George’s emotional support system. She stays close to him. Inside the car, George is in a cage and Irene lies just outside her crate, guarding her favorite friend. Irene is all smiles. She knows she’s headed for a better life and she has her best friend with her to celebrate.

Back at the rescue center, the dogs enjoy a nice bath. Then they get medical tests. The most amazing thing of all happens: George is diagnosed with bone cancer! Because he was caught when he was, he is able to have life-saving surgery. That kind man SAVED George’s life! In more ways than one!

The vet had to amputate one of George’s legs to prevent the cancer from spreading, but he’ll be fine. Dogs do very well on three legs. In fact, some can run faster than dogs on four!

When George is well enough to be released from the medical center, he is reunited with his girlfriend. When Irene sees George, his tail and happy cries say it all!

Both puppies are receiving excellent care. They are being taught how to be pets rather than “street dogs.” George is starting to warm up to everyone he meets. He is starting to understand that most people are good and it is okay to trust them.

George and Irene are a bonded pair and will only be adopted together. If you are interested or know someone who is, please visit the Guardian Angel Pets website.
