Dedicated Dog Dad Waits Patiently Outside Vet's Clinic While The Dog Mom Gave Birth To Their Puppies
It was shaping up to be a typical day for the medical staff and doctors at one veterinary clinic in Espírito Santo, Brazil. Or so they thought.
Unknown to them, a pregnant stray dog was about to knock on their clinic doors and make this a very memorable day.
The surveillance cameras of the clinic captured the exact moment Amiga, the soon-to-be dog mom, reached the clinic's doors. It was as if she knew that this was a safe place for her to give birth to her adorable little pups.
Amiga patiently waited outside the clinic until someone went out to help her. This good Samaritan is João Áureo Rodrigues de Oliveira, a veterinarian.
The good doctor checked on the mom-to-be and knew she badly needed help. She was about to give birth, and where better to do it than in the clinic with his team of professionals?
Without hesitation, the doctor took Amiga inside. The brave mom gave birth to six beautiful pups. They were all being cared for and monitored by the well-meaning staff of the clinic.
Meanwhile, another interesting thing was happening outside of the same clinic. The dad of these newborn pups was also outside the clinic! No one knew he was waiting for his family.
He was eager to hear any news about Amiga and their litter of pups.
This is a photo captured by the cameras outside of the clinic in Brazil. Soon we will see Amiga approaching.

There's Amiga, slowly but surely walking to ask for help from the good people at the clinic.

Look at her cautiously making her way there.

Almost there, Amiga!

Just a few steps more...

...there you go!

And finally, she reached the doors of the clinic safely.

She's heavily pregnant (six puppies!). No wonder she was willing to approach strangers for help.

This is Amiga and the vet's first meeting.

The doctor leans down to get a closer look at Amiga's condition.

Who wouldn't help this angelic mom?
It's a sad reality that so many dogs are homeless and are trying their best to survive daily. Like Amiga, thousands of dogs are looking for a safe and loving place.
They are searching for human companions who can shower them with unconditional love. It's heartbreaking that in Amiga's precarious state, she was forced to wander until she found a safe place to give birth.
She's one of the fortunate ones. She was lucky enough to encounter a kind-hearted vet who was capable and willing to look after her during her most vulnerable state.
The doctor and the staff of the clinic deserve all the applause and gratitude. They helped a struggling stray dog without hesitation.
They knew they were not getting paid for helping Amiga and her puppies, but they took them in. It was a beautiful gesture, and Amiga surely appreciated it.



After a quick assessment, the doctor knew he couldn't waste any more time and took Amiga inside to care for her until she was ready to give birth.

Amiga and her newborn babies.

With his patience and intelligence, he's sure to be a great dog father.
This dog dad must have waited for hours. He didn't mind it at all as long as he was there for Amiga and their puppies. Such a dedicated dad!

Amiga and her babies are recovering until they can find their forever homes.

Amiga, the dad, and their babies are now looking to be adopted. Their time on the streets is over, and they are in search of a good family to love and keep them company.
Dogs are loyal; we are the only family they will ever know. In return, all they ask for is that we take responsibility and care for them properly.
It's always better to adopt dogs from your local shelter than to buy from a shop. If you can't adopt, you can always donate to a charitable foundation.
So many dogs like Amiga and her family need our help. Be kind to animals and say hi to your pets for us!
