A man and his companion witnessed a group of people attempting to catch a small puppy using a noose in a less prosperous area of the city. They intervened and took the puppy, deciding to care for it temporarily. They took the puppy to a hangar, where they fed it donuts and water, but the puppy refused the water. The puppy was examined and found to have no fleas or blockages. The man and his companion suspected the puppy might be a domestic dog that had escaped or been abandoned. They posted ads in the area where they found the puppy, but received no responses.
The puppy was bathed and fed, and it began to gain weight. It was also introduced to another dog, Jessie, and the two became friends. After a week, the man and his companion decided to post an ad on the internet to find a new home for the puppy. They also took the puppy to be dewormed and weighed, finding it to be underweight. The puppy was given medicine and began to trust its new caregivers. Eventually, a new family was found for the puppy, and it was adopted into a loving home.
