Hati the Ceremony Dog
This morning, I planned to visit the rescue house and take a walk with the dogs. As usual, Sophie ran ahead while I prepared my bike. Once I caught up with her, I noticed an open door of a house and Sophie darted inside. I followed her and discovered a tiny puppy lying in the corner. The Ibu (woman) there mentioned they planned to use the dog for a ceremony that night, a common practice in Bali.
Determined to save the puppy, I managed to convince another woman to let me take him. I named him Hati, hoping his little heart would keep beating. Despite initial fears of parvo, tests were negative, but Hati faced several other health issues. His journey was challenging and required ongoing care and monitoring.
