Bus station employees find homeless dogs freezing outside, give them shelter and beds at station
By Dreamer
Every once in a while you’ll see a person taking shelter from the cold in a heated bus stop. Sometimes this is allowed, other times it isn’t. But you probably never seen a dog cozied up at a bus station unless you’ve been to the Barreirinha bus terminal in south Brazil.
A few street dogs were allowed to take refuge from the cold inside the Curitiba bus station in cozy little beds made from blankets and tires.
It’s unknown whether the dogs were abandoned or if they were homeless, but they were welcome at the Barreirinha bus terminal. The terminal’s employees found it in their hearts to let the doggies rest at the bus station and even named them Max, Pitoco, and Zoinho.
The employees created beds for their cute little dogs and made sure they were fed and hydrated. Now, these puppies, who were previously homeless and left out in the cold, are living it up. They have shelter, water, food, and lots of people to adore them.
Look at this face! I might ride the bus just to see a face like this every day.
Local politician Fabiane Rosa, who is a pet lover, caught wind of the kindness that was shown to Max, Pitoco, and Zoinh and praised the bus terminal employees for their gesture and making the community a safer place for needy dogs.
“Respect, care, affection, they take risks, but they are free and happy,” a Facebook translation reads. “I never tire of praising the neusa dos Santos and other volunteers who provide these angels, a warm bed in the cold, food every day, fresh water, security, a curl.”
Rosa’s Facebook post quickly went viral with more than 11,000 shares and 13,000 likes.
Rosa said that there are many companies in Curitiba who could be following the bus terminal’s example of adopting a pet.
“You may be the only hope of those angels who suffer silent,” she wrote. “These dogs in the community, has a life much more worthy, that some who are victims of abuse and neglect, hiding behind the walls. And that people understand, this world is not a privilege of humans, God created the animals to teach us to love without conditions.”
