In Romania’s rural regions, dogs were typically raised as guard dogs but were often mistreated as a way to toughen them up. Since the animals were trained to be ruthless and aggressive, a little dog named Remy was abandoned because of his friendly personality.
Meeting Remy
Howl Of A Dog, a non-profit animal organization, organized a spay and neuter campaign for Romania’s stray canines that lived in the rural area. During the event, a lot of stray dogs were captured and admitted into the local animal shelter.
Every day, volunteers from the organization visited a village to see if there were any dogs in need. During one of the visits, an adorable dog greeted the humans. Remy was a well-known stray in the area that slept in front of a grocery store where the owner regularly fed him.
The volunteers were curious as to why such a friendly dog had no permanent owner. They spent a long period asking around the neighborhood about Remy and his past life.
Unfortunately, no one claimed ownership of the stray dog. Eventually, the volunteers decided to take Remy to the shelter and gave him a shot at a new life.
New beginnings
As soon as Remy got to the shelter, a volunteer gave him a warm bath. Afterward, a vet gave him a physical exam and made sure that Remy was in good condition.
Despite being homeless for so long, Remy never showed signs of aggression. He was known to be the happiest dog that the volunteers had ever seen.
Howl Of A Dog teamed up with international rescue shelters to help find Remy the perfect home. Since Romanians wanted aggressive guard dogs, the shelter felt that Remy was fit for families that wanted gentle or calm pets.
Even so, the shelter still had high hopes for Remy. They continued to spread information about the dog via different social media platforms while they waited for the perfect owner to adopt him.
