“He Put The Injured Paw Forward”: Video Shows Stray Dog Wandering Into A Vet Clinic As If To Ask For Help

ADVERTISEMENT

There are many stray animals in this world and so many of them are starving, sick, or injured. Sadly, it’s impossible to help them all. However, this dog in Ceará, Brazil decided he would change his fate and wandered into a vet clinic called Vet Vip. It’s hard to understand how the doggo realized where to go. The pooch was very lucky to find a vet named Dayse Ferreira da Silva that decided to help him right away.

The amazing vet examined the dog and asked him to go to the examination room. To her surprise, he immediately followed her commands.

Dayse Ferreira da Silva spoke to Bored Panda: “Quindim was a stray dog. Through the external cameras of the clinic, I saw that he was walking, then he laid down and took a nap. Then he got up and went to the office door. Right away, I felt that he needed help and I invited him in. He kindly let me examine him and after some tests, he was diagnosed with a transmissible venereal tumor, which is a very common disease in stray dogs and also highly contagious.”

“He is doing very well now, reacting perfectly to chemotherapies, to the drugs he has been taking and so far he has had no adverse reaction. Quindim is now for adoption. We already have around 10 people from Brazil all interested in giving him a loving home, but we will give preference to people close to our city, because due to the pandemic, many flights were canceled, making it difficult to send him to another location. He is loving, very playful, he is very outgoing, runs, plays and socializes well with other animals.”

We have many posts here on Bored Panda about the most adorable stray dogs and their amazing stories. Here’s an article about a stray dog that interrupted a pro soccer match in Bolivia and got adopted by the player who carried him off the field. Or when a snuggly stray dog interrupted a performance to help an actor pretending to be injured and this heartwarming story about a poor stray dog who came to rest on this family’s porch and refused to leave.

Quindim is doing very well now and the chemotherapies and other treatments are working wonders

There are so many animals out there searching for a loving family and a warm home where they would be taken care of. So if you ever decide you are ready to get a pet for your family, please consider adopting instead of buying! Not only you would have a new family member that would love you to the moon and back, but you would also be saving a life and giving them a second chance.

He is a very friendly, happy, and snuggly pup, always ready to give people all the love he has

This is the vet, Dayse Ferreira da Silva, that saved Quindim’s life and took him off the streets

What a selfless act... I hope it inspires her to do more for strays....it is never their choice to be in the situation they are in...

It just proves how intelligent dogs are. Associating going to see a vet with being ill/injured and getting better. Knowing where the vet was, what it was and making the decision that now was the time to go to the vet and seek help. Some humans I know don't have these skills..

Quindim is such a beautiful and lucky little dog. I really hope that he finds a loving forever home soon. Dayse Ferreira da Silva is a truly wonderful kind and caring person and a credit to her profession. It's a pity for whatever reason she may have that she cannot adopt Quindim herself.

Animals are very intelligent and people don't always give them credit. He understood everything that that was said and responded appropriately. And then he responded with gratitude, it shows on his face. He will find a forever home with no problem. I hope many more will find forever homes. 😀 Keep up the good work Doctors 🙏🏼
