Dogs that have been abandoned and left alone to survive on their own will always hold a special place in their hearts for the people who restored their faith in humanity with kindness.
Cash, a deaf Great Dane, faced immense sorrow after being left in a deserted house devoid of food and water.
A retired woman who rushed to save him was heartbroken by his dire condition.
The pup was emaciated and fatigued. He was so frightened that he just wanted to conceal himself from the outside world.
Cash’s rescuer placed an online advertisement in search of someone willing to foster the abandoned dog and help heal his wounded spirit.
Mending A Dog’s Heart
When an amazing person named Heather stumbled upon the ad, she knew she had to step in and offer her help to the furry friend.
She committed to fostering Cash for a two-week period.
Upon his arrival at Heather’s home in California with his rescuer, she was taken aback by his condition.
“I was at a loss for words at his size and just overwhelmed by his fear,” Heather shared with GeoBeats Animals.
The Great Dane was terrified of humans. Whenever someone approached the door, he would become excessively nervous and retreat to a corner of the room.
His foster family provided him with toys, but Cash was unfamiliar with how to engage with them.
As they lacked experience with fostering a deaf dog, the family undertook thorough research. They discovered that they needed to be exceedingly careful in their interactions with him.
Cash was apprehensive around the other pets in his foster home.
On one occasion, he reacted negatively towards Heather’s senior dog over food. After this, the family decided to feed Cash and walk him separately.
The fosters provided exceptional care to the Great Dane, showering him with affection and support.
Gradually, Cash began to gain weight.
Slowly but surely, the pup began to understand that he could place his trust in his foster family and that they wouldn’t leave him like his former owners did.
Thanks to their boundless love, he began to heal emotionally.
Experiencing Love For The First Time
Three months later, Cash made himself at home and started socializing with the other dogs.
This affectionate Great Dane stole the hearts of his foster parents. They found it hard to imagine their lives without him and made the decision to adopt him permanently.
The dog showered his new family with love and felt profoundly thankful for providing him with the nurturing home he had always longed for.
In an effort to show his gratitude and affection, Cash began to bring toys to his mom.
Even though the dog overcame much of his trauma, he still exhibits unusual behavior around men wearing baseball caps.
His family believes that this reaction stems from a past negative encounter with a man in such a hat.
Whenever they are out and a hat-wearing individual approaches, Cash’s family explains the situation and kindly requests that the person remove their hat.
The pup loves being around his parents.
Cash’s dad is an avid runner, and the pup joins him for daily runs of three to six miles. This is the highlight of his day.
The California boy is living his best life. He frequently shares updates about his adventures on his Instagram profile. He enjoys lounging on the porch, basking in the love of his devoted family.
