Doug Delony of KHOU Houston snapped a photo of a man and his dog at Discovery Green in Houston, and people wanted to know more. Hundreds of thousands of people were enchanted by the truth behind the man, dog, and stroller.
Doug Delony posted to Facebook saying: “Most afternoons I take a run through Discovery Green, and most afternoons I see this guy with a stroller but no baby. He brings this beautiful… what appears to be… disabled pup to the park. He lets it sit in the grass and take in the smell and the sound. Here he is giving it water out of a small cup he brings with him. An adorable dog and a nice guy- God bless ’em.”
The man’s devotion to and care for his blind dog has restored my faith in humanity.
“He’s part of our family,” said Edie Mayo of 16-year-old Max. “He’s my best friend. He’s taught me life lessons that I will never forget.”
