While the homeowners are away on vacation, they check their surveillance camera and spot a dog lying on their porch.

A week after a neighbor unsuccessfully attempts to catch the dog, another neighbor, Emily, takes her dogs for a walk. The stray dog follows her.

Unexpected Houseguest

The stray follows Emily and her dogs into the backyard. Emily, who tells the story, gives the dog some food.

She notices how nervous the dog is, with its tail tucked between its legs, but he seems to understand that she means no harm. He eats the treats she gives him.

Later, she invites the stray into her house. He is very cautious. Emily believes he might have never been inside a building before.

The dog looks around nervously. After some time, he finds a spot in the bathroom where he lies down cautiously, keeping an eye on Emily to see if she allows it.

The Dog Begins to Relax

The stray spends the night at Emily and her partner’s house. Already the next day, he seems to be more relaxed.

They take him to the vet for a check-up. The vet finds no illnesses or parasites, noting only that the dog is a bit underweight.

Meanwhile, Emily has found a loving home for the stray. Viewers praise her for taking care of the dog.

“I’m glad she put his needs first and gave him a home where he gets more attention. She is a selfless person!”
