We hear many stories about empathy. Empathy comes from people who share the same feelings or are in the same situation enough to understand each other. The touching story of the 6-legged dog Roo and his owner Luke illustrates this very well.

The story begins when Roo was born with 6 legs, which is very rare and is a bad omen for the dog. When Roo was born, no one was sure if she would survive. It’s surprising that Roo is still growing and developing, despite the difficulties that come with it. She cannot walk on all fours as usual but has to use her front legs and buttocks to move. This leads to Roo’s eating, running, and jumping being greatly affected.

Roo has to live temporarily on a farm with her life in [dan.ger] if she cannot find a family to take care of her. However, the owner of the farm said that Roo never surrendered to her fate, she is always cheerful and transmits joy and energy to everyone. The ranch owner went online and posted to find a new family for her.

When Roo was 8 weeks old, fate let her meet Luke – a boy with the same pain as her. Luke has [pso.riasis], a [di.sease] that keeps his friends away from him. The moment Luke’s family came to pick up Roo, they knew they belonged together. Roo dashed out of the cage and jumped on her two hind legs excitedly. Both were born with a [cr.uel] fate, perhaps Luke and Roo sympathize with each other more than anyone. This deeply touched Luke’s family. From now, everything will get better.

After returning home, they quickly became friends. They share difficulties and motivate each other a lot in life. Luke also has other cats and rabbits to be friends with Roo. Lauren Salmon – Luke’s father – is also working to help Roo improve her mobility.

So glad that this sweet teenager and his dog Roo are made for one another!
