It's crazy to think that an "academic" faked/cheated her away into the Olympics and then performed so poorly that she killed this competition at that level.
Years later, a documentary would be produced defending her.
The house next door got foreclosed six weeks ago. I watched the family load up a truck and drive off without looking back. What they didn't take with them? Two dogs. That first night I heard it over the fence. Not barking. Just this low, broken sound. When I looked over, they were curled up together in an empty backyard. No food. No water. Just a plastic kiddie pool full of rainwater keeping them alive. I called animal control. Five to seven days, they said. These dogs didn't have that long. So I climbed the fence myself. The female lifted her head, still proud, but she didn't trust me — and honestly, why would she. The male just dragged himself over and collapsed at my feet. A neighbor saw the whole thing, ran over with blankets, called his vet, stayed with us for hours. The vet said another day or two and they wouldn't have made it. Now they're in my backseat, wrapped in blankets, refusing to eat unless they can see each other. I told myself it was temporary. It's not anymore. Whoever left them — they're safe now. Not because of you. In spite of you.
Yesterday, we met this incredibly sweet street dog and her little fluffy potato pups. She was doing her absolute best to care for them, but she was exhausted and needed a helping hand. We promised her we’d be right back.
We went on a little shopping spree to completely spoil this family:
🍼 A huge tray of nourishing goat milk for the tiny puppers so they can grow big and strong!
🧸 The softest blanket and a giant fluffy teddy bear to keep the babies cozy while they snooze.
🥩 A massive, delicious kibble and wet food for Mama because she is a total rockstar and deserves the world!
Right now, there isn't much else to do but let them enjoy their full bellies and rest up. 🐶 Once everyone is a little older and healthy enough, Mama and all her babies are officially on our sterilisation list to ensure they live their best, healthiest lives and we help break the cycle! ✂️
Just look at how proud mum is at the end of the video! 💖
