I will never stop admiring those who go out of their way to do good deeds. I also believe that people are inherently good, and have the intrinsic ability to help others in need.
I've come across countless stories in which people have humbly and heroically saved lives, but the stories that tug hardest at my heartstrings always involve animals.
Dogs, especially, have a reputation of not only saving us from danger, but also of caring for us emotionally and unconditionally.
