The compassion displayed by stray dogs in tough situations continues to leave us in awe. These homeless, overlooked animals exhibit a kind-heartedness that shines brightly amidst their struggles.
Georgiana’s first encounter with Paula was filled with an immediate sense of her extraordinary nature! Though frightened, Paula’s innate desire for rescue was apparent; she simply lacked the ability to articulate it.
However, Georgiana understood her unspoken message.
From Tears to Joyful Smiles

Paula’s body language made it clear that she was hoping Georgiana would come to her rescue! That fateful day, this big-hearted rescuer from SOS Arms paused her drive when a dog sprinted toward her vehicle.
She halted immediately, opened her door, and patiently waited for the dog to approach. When Paula came nearer, her insecurities caused her to maintain a safe distance.
“She wished to approach me but was understandably scared,” Georgiana shared with The Dodo.
At that moment, a passing vehicle prompted Georgiana to instinctively scoop Paula into her arms for safety.
Paula was screaming and crying, unsure if Georgiana meant her harm. Yet, just moments later, her heart melted!
This frightened little girl realized that her savior was showering her with gentle cuddles, and she responded in kind! From that instant on, Paula totally relaxed and allowed her new momma to take her to a shelter.
Flourishing in Her New Home

In just a couple of days, Paula emerged from her shell. She adjusted to her new surroundings as if she had always belonged there, and her fellow dogs welcomed her with open paws.
“Paula started giving kisses within the next two days, as if saying: – You are my friend. I adore you!”
She quickly became the most affectionate cuddle bug among her new companions, which endeared her to her new momma for good.
