One man was taking a cruise down Amazon River when he spotted a dog abandoned on an island. He knew he had got to rescue her.
David Foster was on a river cruise at the time when he first saw the starving, abandoned dog on an island in the Amazon jungle. “When she came running down the beach all I could see was this skeletal form,” he said.
He knew right away that he couldn’t leave the dog. But that didn’t mean saving her was going to be easy.
Negrita is now a resident of Northern Ireland and David her father after five months of recovery from her illness. She’s even learned her first English word – “treats”.
