A blind and severely matted dog was lying in front of a diner where his owner had abandoned him.
Every time the doggo heard people coming in and out of the restaurant, his heart swelled with hope that they would notice him and bring him somewhere safe.
Although the restaurant visitors passed him by, the dog, later named Einstein, didn’t lose hope.
He remained at his spot, curled up in front of the entrance, and continued waiting. He knew there was no place he could go on his own.
Will anyone show him compassion and help him rebuild his life from scratch?
Einstein’s Hero Shows Up
When Audray Luck, a rescuer and the founder of Luck’s Rescue in Dade County, Georgia, went to the same diner to grab lunch, she noticed a sad and matted dog desperately waiting at the doorway.
“He was starving and showing obvious signs of neglect,” Audray wrote on Facebook.
Once Luck approached Einstein, she noticed that his head kept shaking. At that point, she could tell that something was wrong with the abandoned dog.
The kind rescuer talked to Einstein and tried to comfort him. She quickly gained his trust and drove him to the vet, where he received a thorough examination.
The vet discovered that Einstein was mostly blind and that he suffered from a neurological condition that gives him a stilted gait.
Luck placed him in a loving foster home. His foster family gave him a much-needed bath, and they trimmed his matted fur.
Einstein was relieved because someone cared for him. That night, he felt so relaxed that he quickly fell asleep.
As time went by, the doggo began regaining energy.
He met his foster doggy siblings and made friends with them. Einstein didn’t let his blindness or the neurological disorder stop him from having fun, and he began playing with his new friends outside.
“He’s a little clumsy and walks a little funny, but that doesn’t slow him down!” Luck’s Rescue wrote in a clip about Einstein.
The Unconditional Love All Dogs Deserve
Once the doggo was medically cleared, he started searching for his forever human.
Thankfully, Einstein captured the heart of a wonderful woman named Connie, who adopted him.
She collected him from the shelter, and they started their long trip to Einstein’s forever home in Florida.
The doggo couldn’t imagine how his life would change, but he could tell how much his forever mom loved him, and that made him so happy.
Einstein quickly settled in and started discovering how wonderful life was. He loved going to dog parks and doing zoomies.
The pup has an Instagram account where he and his mom share happy moments and updates about Einstein’s new life.
Ever since he moved in with his family, the doggo has made strides of improvement in his health.
“His nervous system has improved, his strength is coming back, and his sweet personality is shining through more every day. We still have a journey ahead, but the progress so far gives me so much hope,” his mom wrote on Instagram.
Einstein, I’m thrilled that you found such an amazing family and that you managed to turn your life around.
