One day, a couple in their 80s brought home a puppy from a pet shop.
That's today's rescue dog, Peko-chan.
Her went into nursing home care at the age of 94.
But there were no friends or family left in the area to look after Peko.
That's how Peko came to live at Nyaild Hearts.
Peko's story raises a lot of questions.
Why did the elderly couple think it would be a good idea to take in an active young puppy?
Why did the pet shop owners allow them to do this?
Sadly, the needs of animals are often treated as less significant than humans.
A caregiver's age is just one factor to consider in giving dogs a happy life.
Always remember that a pet is a lifetime commitment.
