When Dog Rescue Shelter Mladenovac got a call that there was an abandoned puppy in a remote area in the countryside they didn’t expect what they found. Milan, who runs the shelter, traveled with a friend 10 kilometers away from his animal shelter to a desolate road with no home in sight.
When they arrived there was a puppy sitting by a concrete block on a dirt road.

The puppy was frightened and ran into the nearby bushes. Milan and his friend went after the pup but were shocked when more puppies emerged from the bushes – five in all, around two months old and all alone.

The puppies weren’t aware of how desperate their situation was. They seemed playful and interested in the rescuers, but as soon as Milan gave them food and water they devoured it.

A straggler joined them to eat. Milan was hoping the mother would appear, but sadly she didn’t.

Once the pups ate their fill and were all around the food bowl, Milan scooped them up and brought them to the safety of his shelter.

Unfortunately, litters are discarded regularly in Serbia and there are numerous stray dogs. It’s unclear if the pups’ mother was a stray and got hurt or killed, or if someone cruelly abandoned them to fend for themselves. But at least now they are all safe and have a chance at a better life.

Families in Inhuma, Brazil enjoy taking in the Nativity Scene set up in the city square. But when Nadia Rosângela and her family walked by it in early December they spotted something in the manger that wasn’t part of the original decorations. It was a puppy curled up and sleeping!
Nadia Rosângela
“When we went to see the nativity scene, we came across a puppy sleeping in the manger. An image very beautiful…” she told the Brazilian news channel [transl.] Cidadeverde.com. Rosângela and her husband had taken their son to view the Nativity scene display that was nearly completed.
“She [the puppy] was asleep the whole time. Other people arrived, took pictures, kept talking and [the puppy] was in a wonderful sleep,” Nadia continued. The puppy did not open her eyes but continued to sleep despite all the commotion around her.
Nadia Rosângela
Rosângela was so moved by the tender scene that she took some photos and posted them to social media, asking if someone could help the stray puppy. She explained that seeing the puppy in the manger was emotional for her: “I imagined how Jesus Christ is present in so many things, in so many creatures, in so many beings. For me, that puppy was Jesus making himself present.”
Rosângela couldn’t bring the puppy home herself as her family already has three dogs and 12 adopted cats! Thankfully, her plea for help received plenty of attention and several people showed up wanting to adopt the puppy.
Nadia Rosângela
One of Rosângela’s friends ended up bringing the puppy home. No one knows how the puppy ended up in the manager, but she was likely abandoned by someone in the city as the pup’s mother was nowhere to be seen.
“I feel happy and at peace knowing she’s safe,” Rosângella later told the Dodo in an interview. “I love animals very much, and wish the same for all of them.”
Matilda lost her legs the day she was born, yet she quickly proved to be one of the most resilient and spirited puppies you’ll ever meet. With just one leg, she never let anything stop her. When Matilda meets Walter, a tiny 13-ounce English bulldog, it’s love at first sight. Their heartwarming bond takes a tear-jerking turn, but their story remains a powerful inspiration about resilience, love, and the unbreakable spirit of dogs ❤️
Max is a retired racing greyhound and because of his earlier life, he never had his own backyard to explore and play in. But that’s all changed. The adopted greyhound’s family bought a new home with a large grassy backyard. Watch as Max decides to celebrate with zoomies!
Max’s family writes: “He is so happy now that he has a huge backyard to run in! It’s been so lovely seeing him explore off leash and have the space to have crazy zoomies every day.”
They also filmed Max’s first time playing in the leaves. Again, Max lets his inner zoomies out!
It’s so wonderful to see Max living his new life to the fullest.
Mary’s dog Secret got into the holiday spirit and decided to help her decorate their Christmas tree. Mary shared this cute video of the two working together to put up the ornaments, string the lights and put the Christmas tree topper up on top for the grand finale!
“We decided it was close enough to Christmas to put one up. It came out rather lopsided and wonky (she likes to put all her balls in the same spot), but it’s Secret style,” Mary writes.
We think Secret did a great job and watching her certainly put us in a festive mood.
