These Two Stray Puppies Were Just Rescued, And They Refuse To Stop Hugging Each Other
You might call it puppy love, but these two lovely friends can’t seem to keep their paws apart.
A pair of inseparable stray puppies have been melting hearts on social media after being supposedly adopted by Buddhist nuns in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
The bigger pup is shown protecting a shrine within the temple as his buddy is held in his paws.
Another image depicts the dog in a Zen position next to a Buddhist statue, hinting that he is studying meditation with the masters.
The doggie pair was apparently taken in by the temple after being abandoned on the streets of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and given a fresh lease on life.
In reaction to the folks, hundreds of comments gushing over the canine friends swamped social networking site Weibo.
‘Because the dogs are now in the temple, they must sit in meditation like the nuns,’ one user said.
Others scolded the puppies’ prior owners for abandoning them.
‘I’m not sure how people can be so harsh. They shouldn’t have acquired the dogs in the first place if they couldn’t care for them!’
However, contrary social media chatter has called the dogs’ suffering into question.
A monk from Bao Hoa Son Temple in Khanh Hoa Province, according to one Twitter source, saved them.
“Those puppies were born at that temple in Vietnam, and the nuns taught them to stand and hug each other,” said Mira Eleonora Pantazopol Lordanescu, a linguist at Bucharest’s Faculty of Linguistics, painting a much bleaker picture.
“There is no happy ending… the little black one died because they don’t have any type of veterinarian treatment there for the animals they have,” Lordanescu, who uses her Facebook account to uncover alleged animal scams, maintained.
Doggie Dad Decided To Sell His House To Keep His Precious Babygirl Alive
Everyone who has ever had a veterinary emergency with their beloved, four-legged best friend knows both how pricey and how gut-wrenching the entire experience is.
So when one doggie dad faced veterinary expenditures reaching just shy of $24,000, he said he was willing to go to unusual measures to keep his baby girl alive.
Jaxon is the dad of a two-year-old Weimaraner named Rambo. For reasons that are still unknown, Rambo fell into hypovolemic shock, which means her heart was unable to pump blood to the rest of her body. Not only that, but she also suffered gastroenteritis, or a stomach flu.
“She began vomiting throughout the night over 30 times and by Saturday am we were in the emergency vets,” said Rambo’s dad.
As you may have guessed, this caused her health to worsen rapidly, and they weren’t sure how long she’d have to be in emergency care. On top of hypovolemic shock and gastrointestinal issues, fluids started leaking into her lungs, and she got pneumonia. One of her lungs even collapsed.
Being at the emergency vet under 24/7 surveillance is ultimately what saved her life but it cost over £1000 ($1200 USD) per day to be under their care. Rambo’s insurance would cover her up to £6500 ($7,800), but her cost was already at £11,500 ($13,800) after only a single week in their care.
So Jaxon launched a gofundme page to try to get funds for Rambo’s crucial care. He even indicated that he was willing to ‘sell his house.’
“If the worst happens and Rambo requires significant surgery, the cost of this as well as the aftercare is something I need to be able to provide my beautiful baby girl,” added Jaxon.
Her dad got so frightened that he started sleeping in his car that he parked near the vet, so that he wouldn’t be too far from his darling baby girl. But not only did more than 600 individuals donate, with the total raised already reaching £10,000 ($12,000), Rambo reacted to less intrusive therapies, and they were able to skip surgery altogether.
“My little angel is by no means completely better, it will be a long road to recovery for her and she still requires 24/7 observation at this time along with a large dose of medication. Nonetheless, we did what we said we would, we came home,” stated Jaxon.
Due to all the love, support, and outstanding treatment, Rambo started to make a miraculous recovery. After two long weeks, she was finally able to leave the hospital and travel home with her adoring dad.
