We understand that it may be difficult to part with a beloved pet, but it is important to think of what is best for them. Leaving your pet alone on the street is not a pet-friendly choice. There is no guarantee that someone will find them and take good care of them. In fact, it is more likely that they will suffer or even die.
Over the weekend, a dog named Baby Girl was found sitting calmly on the grass on a residential street in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

Moreover, next to the dog, there was a backpack filled with her favorite things: food, treats, toys, and a poignant note.
“[I] sat outside with her for an hour keeping her warm waiting for someone to come back but no one did,” Engelhardt wrote on Facebook.
Knowing that she could not leave this puppy behind, Engelhardt then decided to bring her to the Wisconsin Humane Society.

The image of Baby Girl with her belongings and the heartbreaking story gained significant attention from people at the shelter over the course of the week. Everyone at the shelter cares for her; it is lucky that the 5-year-old dog’s health is pretty good.
