Tiny Abandoned Puppy Chases Cop Down The Street And Forces Him To Make A Bold Move
Patrolling a neighborhood street, two LAPD officers suddenly felt like they were being followed. Ready to face a suspicious character, the cops turned around, only to discover... a small abandoned puppy. But the tiny dog was no match for the perilously busy LA traffic. And it forced the officers to make a bold move that neither would ever forget.
Small but mighty
It initially started off as just another shift for Officers Mercado and Tavera. And with the blur of traffic, no one may have spotted the scrawny pup wandering around. But thankfully for the dog, who stood only as tall as an adult's ankle, someone took notice.
On the right path
Mercado and Tavera were out on patrol along Hobart Boulevard when they noticed the small, strange figure following them. Although the little guy had a small frame, two big ears flopped around his head. They bobbled wildly as he approached Mercado, practically skipping up to him.
Fast approach
Tavera captured the whole encounter on his phone. With each step that Mercado made, the puppy followed. Realizing this little guy was abandoned, the officers suddenly found themselves forced into the role of animal rescuers. And after realizing the street they were on, they knew what to call the bouncing stray.
Safe and sound
Yup, the cops nicknamed the little puppy Hobart! But the encounter wasn't all fun and games. Seeing how young the pup was, the officers knew it was dangerous for him to be alone. So, the two took little Hobart with them and let him enjoy his first police car ride. In the meantime, they discussed what to do with the little guy.
