One day, 18-year-old Chris noticed a scruffy but well-mannered dog named Ollie standing outside a closed bike shop. The dog visited the shop every day, staring at the glass panes as if waiting for someone. Chris learned from coworkers that Ollie belonged to the shop owner, who had mysteriously disappeared weeks ago. Chris, a dog lover, felt sad seeing Ollie abandoned and started sharing his lunch with him. But instead of eating the food, Ollie would grab it and run off, leaving Chris puzzled.
Curiosity got the better of Chris, and one day, he decided to follow Ollie. What he discovered was heartbreaking. Ollie had been taking the food to a secluded house where a German Shepherd named Max was trapped inside. Max was weak and malnourished, surviving only because of Ollie’s daily deliveries. Chris called the police, who found the decomposed body of the bike shop owner in the house. It turned out the man had died weeks earlier, leaving his dogs to fend for themselves.
Chris couldn’t bear to leave the dogs alone. Despite his girlfriend Mila’s initial reluctance, he brought Ollie home and later adopted Max after the dog recovered at a veterinary hospital. Over time, Mila’s heart softened, and the couple became loving dog parents. This touching story reminds us of the loyalty and love dogs offer, even in the face of abandonment and hardship.
