Amid the noise and motion of a busy street, a heartbreaking moment went unnoticed by most.
But for anyone who truly loves animals, what happened to Poro would be impossible to ignore.
Once a joyful dog, Poro now lay motionless—thin, weak, and scarred by the cruelty of the very person who was supposed to protect him.
His body showed clear signs of abuse and neglect. He was infested with parasites, covered in ticks, and severely malnourished.
Cars sped by. People passed without a second glance. But Poro’s eyes watched everyone, holding onto a flicker of hope that someone might care.
His gaze was quiet but desperate, as if begging for someone to look past his wounds and see the soul still holding on.
That day, I thought I had already seen the worst of how humans treat innocent animals—but Poro’s suffering revealed something deeper.
When I knelt beside him, he was barely alive. I had to lean in and press my ear to his chest just to hear the faint beat of his heart.
Even in such despair, there was still a trace of life, a small chance.

That fragile moment sparked hope: that with kindness and care, Poro’s story could still take a turn.
That maybe, just maybe, the world would show him that not all people turn away.
Now he has a chance to heal—not just his body, but his broken trust. Poro deserves that chance. Every living being does.
