On a day of heavy snowfall, a man looking out his window noticed something moving under a recently cleared parking spot. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a tiny puppy, shivering and unable to stand, struggling to survive the brutal cold.
A Life-Saving Intervention
The man rushed downstairs to find the puppy soaked, covered in snow, and trembling uncontrollably. The poor creature was so frozen that its limbs were locked in place, and it lacked even the strength to bark. Its eyes were filled with nothing but despair.
The rescuer immediately brought the puppy inside, using floor heaters and towels to bring its body temperature back to normal. As the puppy began to warm up, its trembling stopped, and it slowly started to regain its spirit. After a thorough bath and a blow-dry, the once-miry ball of fur transformed into a fluffy, adorable companion.
Finding Strength and a Name
Despite having no experience raising dogs, the man dedicated himself to the puppy’s recovery. He gave him the name Haitanghua.
-
The First Steps: Initially too weak for solid food, Haitanghua was given glucose solution and water to build up his strength.
-
A Quick Learner: By the third day, the puppy was responding to the man’s voice and showing affection by crawling toward his feet.
-
Remarkable Manners: To the man’s surprise, Haitanghua proved to be very clean, instinctively waiting to go outside to do his business rather than soiling his living area.

A Bright New Beginning
On the fourth day, the snow finally stopped, and the sun came out. The man took Haitanghua outside for his first walk since the rescue. The change was breathtaking—the puppy that was once frozen and dying was now joyfully leaping through the snow, full of energy and life.
Knowing he didn’t have the experience to raise a dog long-term, the man carefully searched for a permanent home. A kind new owner was found, promising to give Haitanghua the care and love he deserves.
Though their time together was short, Haitanghua left a lasting impression on his rescuer. The man described him as a sensible and obedient dog who never caused any trouble. As Haitanghua left for his new home, he carried with him the hope and health that a single act of kindness made possible.
