When sick stray dogs are wandering through the streets, most people would just ignore them or would even scare them away. But this 9-year-old kid from the Philippines saw in them an opportunity to help and make history.
Everyday for two weeks, Ken kept wandering off. His father, Kay, got curious of what he was doing and decided to follow him. What he found out was both heartwarming and heartbreaking.
He discovered that his loving son was looking after and feeding three very sick puppies that were living on the streets.
These puppies were starving and suffering from a skin diseases called mange.
Though they seem to be afraid of humans, the dogs have developed a special connection with Ken.
Kay, Ken’s father, then decided to help his son.
They took those three puppies out of the street and placed in a temporary home; their garage.
And because of their condition, they need to be isolated and given proper treatment.
They were fed with imported dog food (donations from all over the world).
A dream come true, Ken gave his new rescue a name – The Happy Animals Club.
Each of the three dogs then began to grow into a beautiful dog that they were destined to become.
The “Lifeless Blackie”…
is now the “Happy Blackie”.
The “Lonesome Brownie”…
has become the “Playful Brownie”.
And the “Skittish White Puppy”…
has turned out to be the “Affectionate White Puppy”.
With the help of wonderful people who are sending their donations, The Happy Animals Club is now expanding; with a small lot that Ken and Kay have leased.
The Happy Animals Club is the first no-kill animal shelter on the island of Mindanao. Because of this little kid’s kind and generous heart, more dogs in the Philippines are going to be rescued.
