Picture this: it’s an ordinary day when you stop for food at a McDonald’s drive-thru, and you see a little dog sitting right next to the ordering window.
He’s not there with someone, or just casually “hanging around.” He’s actually starving and waiting for someone to give him a piece of their order. Truly heartbreaking, right? And yet, it’s not a hypothetical situation but a cruel reality.
A tiny dog was found a few days ago in Los Angeles, California, practically begging people for food. He patiently waited for someone to show him kindness, and fortunately, that someone showed up just in time.
Hoping For Help
When Suzette Hall, a California rescuer and the founder of Logan’s Legacy, received a call about this tiny four-legged furball, she was utterly shocked and heartbroken. She knew that the dog must have been in a desperate situation, so she immediately rushed into action.
“Poor little baby, he was so hungry. He was seen for two days waiting at a McDonald’s drive thru hoping people would order him food. Covered in fleas and ticks,” Hall wrote in a Facebook post.
Fortunately, one of her friends, Mary, was already there.
She slowly approached the pup, trying not to spook him. Even though he was starving, the dog seemed scared. He was reluctant to let Mary near him. But then, she offered him something he could hardly refuse: a hamburger!
After so much waiting, he finally tasted food – and it felt so delicious!
This tiny boy ate the entire meal within seconds, showing how hungry he was this whole time.
Then, Suzette arrived at the location, gave him a few pets, showered him with kind words, and before he knew it, he was in a comfy passenger seat on a drive to a better life!
Waiting For A Second Chance
Hall couldn’t hide her gratitude for saving this sweet pup. During their very first drive, the duo shared some truly beautiful moments. For the first time since the rescue, the dog finally wagged his tail with so much enthusiasm, as if he knew everything would be fine.
Hall, meanwhile, knew that moving forward, everything would be smooth sailing compared to the dog’s former struggles.
“When I was driving him to my vet he literally was wagging his tail so much, he felt safe and the air conditioning felt so good. This sweet baby boy is rescued and he is going to be Mclovin life,” Hall concluded.
In the following days, this sweet boy will be on hold until his situation is evaluated and his microchip is scanned.
Hall and the rest of her team will make sure the pup gets the best treatment, including vet care and all procedures needed. When the time is right, there’s no doubt the dog will get his second chance at life, far from that McDonald’s drive-thru, and hopefully in a cozy home!
