I took my pooch to the vet today for a routine checkup. While sitting in the waiting room an elderly lady came out of one of the examination rooms crying like a baby. I asked what was the matter. She said that her dog needed a surgery and she couldn't afford it. She was going to have her beloved pet put down or worse, let him suffer. I went to the front desk and asked how much it was for her dog's surgery. I wont disclose the amount but it was pretty substantial. Without hesitation I took out my credit card and paid for the procedure. I got an odd look from my wife but I knew I was doing the right thing. I kept my gift anonymous but ensured the woman her precious little one would be cared for and she didn't have to worry.
Please note. I'm not patting myself on the back or anything like that. I just wanted to take a moment to share my story and encourage others to do the same if you have the means.
