Woman experiences love at first sight on vacation with the tiniest stray dog
Compassion, most of the time, is all you’ll ever need.
A couple went on a vacation to see Fiji’s untamed mountains and pristine and azure waters. The island is a paradise for locals and tourists alike but not for a little puppy.
It only took one glance, a skip of the heart, and a decision. What started out as an unexpected encounter became a story of friendship and love.
Morgan and her boyfriend were having the time of their lives in Fiji.
The small island nation boasts beaches that seem like a dream where one can bathe under the glorious rays of the golden sun.
But as the couple was enjoying these island delights, a guest plopped in unannounced. Morgan took notice of it and while she didn’t know it yet at that time, she has already fallen in love.
The unannounced guest was a scrawny tiny puppy.
It had a brown patch that covered its ears and eyes while its snout and the rest of its body were white – or at least that was how it should look like.

Instead, the puppy’s fur was reduced to patches because of mange. It had bald spots and the whiteness has dulled out into gray. Its tail, while wagging enthusiastically, was almost bare.

“I was just sitting there and this little tiny puppy just dropped out and I was like, ‘Oh my God. Where did you come from?’” Morgan told The Dodo.
The encounter was short, but it was more than enough to leave an impression on Morgan.
As they drove away, the puppy just trotted back out again and stares at her. In the puppy’s button eyes, the veterinary nurse found love and the sincere intention of connecting to her.

She knew at that moment that she couldn’t leave the puppy behind. She had to do something. She had to take him with her.
As much as she wanted to take the puppy back to Sydney, the situation was much more complicated.
Morgan can’t stay in Fiji as well because she had to go back to her job. Fortunately, she found a home that was willing to foster the puppy while she arranged for its migration to Australia.

The puppy, named Fiji, grew up well under foster care. As for Morgan, she pushed herself to be patient. She and Fiji would only be apart for three months then their “life would start together.”
Once Fiji landed in Sydney, he never left Morgan’s side.
Morgan was so delighted to see her beloved puppy. He has now grown into a 23-kilo dog. His fur was in perfect shape and his weight reached a healthy range. He was far from the scrawny form Morgan found him in.

Fiji quickly adjusted to Sydney life. Morgan’s other pets also made it easy for Fiji because they warmly welcomed the new member of the family.

“He’s one of the happiest dogs I’ve ever met,” Morgan said to The Dodo. “From seeing that tiny sick little puppy that was just holding on for life to now seeing this big, healthy 23-kilo dog, I’m just like anyone can do anything.”
Watch how a tiny puppy’s life changed after experiencing love at first sight.
