Epic dogs tales
Imagine the plight of Hera, a homeless canine mother enduring the harshest of winters on the Serbian streets. With temperatures plummeting, Hera faced brutal snowstorms while trying to provide for her fragile newborn pups. Her desperation led her to a moisture-laden drainpipe alongside the road, where she thought they might escape the bitter cold.
Day and night, Hera was tormented by worry for her little ones, their health fragile in such demanding conditions. Every sound of an approaching vehicle sparked a glimmer of hope as she would rush forward, silently implore each stranger for aid—but time and again her silent pleas were met with disheartening apathy, and she was left to fend for them in the icy embrace of winter.

Just the other day, I stumbled upon this heart-tugging footage and can’t help but share the story of a brave rescue mission on snow-covered roads. Meet Milan, a hero from the Dog Rescue Shelter Mladenovac, who got a tip about a dog named Hera hanging out in a precarious spot. Driven by concern, Milan set out on a mission to bring Hera to the safety and warmth of the shelter. Despite the heavy snow concealing most of the area, he managed to locate Hera by following her cleverly left paw-prints.
The moment Hera caught sight of Milan, her face lit up with hope and she burst out of a roadside pipe she’d taken refuge in. Milan was immediately taken by her friendly spirit, but his joy turned bittersweet upon discovering Hera’s drenched puppies, huddled inside the pipe. And let me tell you, getting these four-week-old furballs to safety proved way more challenging than he anticipated.
Turns out, Hera’s little ones weren’t the biggest fans of human contact, and they were downright spooked by Milan’s presence. Despite their mom’s calming influence, they wouldn’t leave their makeshift shelter, unaware of the comfy life that awaited them. With darkness creeping in, Milan knew he had to work quickly to coax the puppies out of their dire situation.
If you stick with the video till the very end, you’ll witness Milan’s dog-whispering magic as he rescues the puppies from that dismal pipe, against the backdrop of the fading light. His dedication never wavered, even with the weather taking a turn for the worse. Making the extra effort, he ensured a happy reunion with their anxious mother. The resulting scene of Hera and her adorable pups settling into their cozy new shelter quarters? Absolutely spirit-lifting!
