But that wasn’t all. In one of the nearby sheds, officers found the decomposing body of Mr. Lawrence. He had died suddenly, likely from a heart attack, leaving his dogs alone and forgotten.Chris was heartbroken. He couldn’t leave the dogs to be taken to a shelter, so he made a decision. He brought Ollie home, knowing his girlfriend Mila wasn’t fond of pets—especially dogs.
Mila was furious when she saw Ollie. She argued, warned Chris, and made it clear she didn’t want the dog in their home. But Chris begged her to give Ollie a chance, promising to take full responsibility.That night, Chris slept in the kitchen with Ollie curled up beside him.The next morning, Ollie was gone.Chris panicked—he feared Mila had thrown the dog out or worse.
But when he got to work, there was Ollie, waiting outside the bike shop like always. Chris was angry and disappointed, thinking Ollie had run away and betrayed his trust.But when he saw Ollie dash off again with some stale bread, Chris decided to follow. What he discovered was the truth—Ollie had never betrayed him. He was being loyal to his friend Max, trapped and starving.
Seeing the full picture, Chris brought Ollie back home and told Mila everything. She was moved. When Max was released from the vet weeks later, Chris and Mila welcomed him too. Though reluctant at first, Mila slowly warmed up to the dogs, touched by their loyalty and love.What began as a small act of kindness turned into a rescue mission—and the beginning of a new family. Chris, Mila, Ollie, and Max found something in each other they didn’t know they needed: loyalty, healing, and unconditional love.
