She was neglected by her owner and lived a life of misery. But one day, everything changed for a puppy named Chunkie—all thanks to Mike the firefighter.
Mike was out walking when he saw a puppy tied to a pole. Nobody seemed to care about her and it was raining hard. The puppy was abandoned, alone, and seemingly very neglected.
Mike waited a while as he kept an eye out for an owner, but after no one turned up, he decided to take action.
Mike Thawley, who works at the Sacramento Fire Department, took the puppy to the fire station, where he washed her up made sure she was okay.
