Meet Lalu—a stray dog whose quiet cries and limp captured the attention of a kind stranger.
When she saw him hobbling along the road in obvious pain, she didn’t turn away. Instead, she contacted RRSA India, hoping someone could help.
Within minutes, a rescue team arrived with first aid supplies. Though Lalu was clearly frightened, he didn’t resist.
It was as if he knew help had finally come. His broken leg was causing him intense distress, and he needed urgent care.
The team gently secured him in a transport cage to avoid adding to his pain, then rushed him to the RRSA veterinary clinic.
There, the vet quickly confirmed the fracture and took immediate steps to stabilize it. A temporary splint was applied to reduce the pain while further treatment was prepared.
Lalu’s eyes, filled with fear, also held a glimmer of trust—as if he sensed his life was about to change.
And it did.
Over the following weeks, Lalu received everything he needed to recover—medical care, rest, and most of all, kindness.
As his leg healed, so did his spirit. The once-quiet and cautious pup became playful, affectionate, and full of energy.
A month later, Lalu is almost unrecognizable. Happy, healthy, and thriving, he’s a reminder that no matter how bad things may seem, a little love and the right care can turn any story around.
