Two Abandoned Dogs Found Friendship In An Emergency Room

Sometimes, friendships can be formed in the most dire circumstances. Something beautiful can happen and be found despite of the struggles and hardships. Just like what happened to an abandoned dog and a puppy who met at an emergency room.

Olaf is a one-year-old Mastiff who was surrendered by his family to a shelter just a week before Christmas. Olaf had an infected wound in his leg caused by a snake bite. And since he needed emergency care, the shelter sent him to Second Chance Rescue— an animal rescue organization that focuses on medical cases as well as abused & neglected animals.

Because of Second Chance Rescue’s help, Olaf’s surgery was successful. But he still felt alone, he was in a strange place, and he was in desperate need of comfort and love.

On the other hand, Mariah is a six-week-old pup who was found on Christmas eve, abandoned in a parking lot. Poor little Mariah was hypothermic, she needed immediate medical attention, so Second Chance Rescue brought her to the hospital.

Olaf and Mariah were at the same hospital–it was like destiny. They instantly clicked! The two dogs who needed medical attention, found comfort in each other.

The two are still recovering, but with Second Chance Rescue taking care of them, we know they’re in good hands. And having each other, getting love and comfort from each other, well that has helped a lot!

We are so happy that these two dogs found each other in such a time of need. For more updates about Olaf and Mariah, visit Second Chance Rescue’s Facebook page.
