As the day drew to a close, Ashley, a single mother who worked morning shifts at a grocery store, prepared to go home. She took her normal route and arrived at her residence eventually. But as Ashley drove up her street, she saw a cardboard Amazon box at the end of it. That was unusual. Maybe someone had left it there by accident.
Ashley got out of her car and went over to the box. She thought she heard something moving within at first. It had been a long day, but something was off nonetheless. That’s when she heard faint wails, Oh no! Ashley seized the box and ran inside with it.

There was a tiny puppy in there, and Ashley didn’t know what to do! She phoned a nearby veterinarian right away. He advised Ashley on how to care for the pup until the next day. Ashley attempted to feed the puppy some special formula from a bottle. He must have been hungry because she decided to call him Jackson.

He was only three weeks old. This wasn’t ideal. He needed to be with his mother. He couldn’t regulate his body temperature, and he couldn’t feed himself. He required constant attention and hands-on care. The veterinarian told Ashley the following day what she should do to properly care for Jackson.

Ashley and Jackson returned home, and she introduced him to her cat, Dan. They hit it off right away! Dan taught Jackson how to play! Ashley was soon concerned about something with Jackson. She had no idea what was wrong with him, but a mother knows. She immediately made an appointment for the tiny dog at the veterinarian’s practice.
