A young woman who had taken part in the 26-mile run experienced this.
The athlete noticed a lone, small puppy left by everyone at the edge of the street.
The young lady carried the doggy with determination as she carried on with the long-distance race.
She might offer the little puppy to the onlookers watching the race, or she could give it to a person riding in a small van with the runners.
In any case, the lady made the decision to stay with the dog. Additionally, consider their strategy for this competition.
Together, they reached the finish line, and the kind woman insisted on keeping the dog.
She took him to the vet to get checked out. The dog was then introduced to his new companions after which he joined them right immediately.
The lovely young woman went back to where she found the puppy after the race and looked around again just to be sure.
Doggy currently lives in a big family where he is appreciated and loved. What a caring young lady. If only everyone were like her.
