It’s a sad fact that many dogs entering animal shelters are malnourished and underweight. It pains me to see animals struggling to the point where they’re almost too weak to stand.
Some, in spite of their neglect, remain affectionate and trusting towards humans, though others shrink in fear when a rescuer approaches. What the latter have been subjected to sometimes doesn’t bear thinking about.
Personally, I can’t imagine ever wanting to hurt an animal. Furthermore, I simply can’t understand why anyone would take any sort of pleasure in doing so …
That said, I think dogs have a sixth sense when it comes to knowing which people are good and which are not.
Those who work with animals will understand the importance of letting a creature that has been subjected to neglect make the first move. Of course, it’s common to want to pat and play with a dog to show it you mean no harm, but this isn’t always the best way.
Some people just don’t fathom that a dog that has experience of being mistreated might be caught off guard by a complete stranger.
Edie, an abandoned dog of mixed breed, was hours away from being put down. She was terrified of humans and it had been a long, long time since anyone cared for her. Her fur was a mess and she was dangerously malnourished.
It took a true animal lover to give Edie a second chance.
The first part of the video is difficult to watch. Edie is so afraid that she hardly knows what to do with herself. Her whole body shakes as she barks to ward off the man she perceives to be a threat.
Finally, however, the man in the video is able to snare Edie and thus stop her from running away. He can now approach her.
It doesn’t take long after that for a pact of trust to be built. Edie begins to understand that he isn’t there to hurt her, but to help her. You can almost see the moment she realizes that she isn’t going to be put down anymore.
Watch the video below to see Edie’s reaction when she understands that she’s saved:
Let’s take the time to express our gratitude for those who dedicate their lives to helping animals in need.
Without you guys, the world would be a far worse place for our innocent four-legged friends.
Share this video so that more people can see Edie’s incredible transformation.
Customers Not Happy With Latest Announcement From ‘Dollar Tree’ , here’s what they announced
InfIation has hit the United States hard, with a shocking 4.2 percent rate in July, the highest in decades. This economic pressure has forced businesses, including ‘Dollar Tree’, known for selling items at $1, to make significant adjustments.
‘Dollar Tree’ faced a decIine in stock prices, dropping nearly seventeen percent in one trading session, as it grappled with rising shipping costs and the need to combat inflation.
‘Dollar Tree’s’ decision to sell items for more than a dollar came after investors saw a hit of $1.50 to $1.60 per share of profits, a substantial blow for a retailer focused on the one-dollar price point.
The company cited the economic challenges posed by infIation and the pand emic as reasons for the pricing adjustments.
CEO Michael Witynski acknowledged the shift in a prepared statement, stating, For decades, our customers have enjoyed the ‘thrill-of-the-hunt’ for value at one dollar – and we remain committed to that core proposition – but many are telling us that they aIso want a broader product assortment when they come to shop.
Despite the drop in stock prices, Dollar Tree emphasized its commitment to providing value to customers. Witynski stated, We will continue to be fiercely protective of that promise, regardless of the price point, whether it is $1.00, $1.25, $1.50. The announcement sparked mixed reactions among customers, with concerns about the impact of the price change on the store’s appeal. WhiIe the stock prices have shown signs of recovery, the decision to sell items for more than a dollar raises questions about whether customers will continue to shop at ‘Dollar Tree’.
