A video that's giving the Internet warm fuzzies shows a vet comforting a scared dog. This viral video has gained millions of views and people are watching how the gentle vet builds trust from the poor dog.
Dr. Tom shares that when he was a young boy, his Husky dog saved him from a dog attack. Although the dog was chained up, he broke its chains and ended up saving his life. That incident changed his mind about dogs and inspired him to become a veterinary doctor.
“What I want the world to realize is through kindness, love, and compassion, you can change a dog’s — any animal, really — perspective on who you are. It’s not like it’s the end goal to vaccinate them and send them on their way. I want to actually build a relationship with them,” he said.
