HOMEWORK
A remarkable story of Rupee, the dog who hit bottom. Abandoned in a dump, he was rescued. Now, he is on top of the world. Take a look.
It is the ultimate underdog tale. Rupee, a once abandoned pup making canine history, becoming the first dog on record to climb Mount Everest. His owner Joanne Lefson by his side.
¡°He¡¯s done amazingly well.¡±
But Rupee wasn¡¯t always on top of the world. Lefson said she found him in rough shape just a few months ago, abandoned in this dump.
¡°I was in the Himalayan areas in northern India. This little pup came charging towards me.¡±
Starving, dehydrated and near death, Rupee fell into Lefson¡¯s lap, and Lefson fell in love. She nursed him back to health back at home in South Africa and decided to bring Rupee along on her Mount Everest climb, as her own slum dog mountaineer.
¡°It was quite amazing to watch, you know, Rupee transforming to this amazing, you know, Mount Everest trekking, you know, super, super dog. He took the lead on most days. We were kind of dragging up, you know, behind him.¡±
It turns out Rupee was following in some pretty distinguished pup prints. You may remember Lefson on GMA last year, after her pup Oscar became the first dog ever to travel around the world.
¡°So he¡¯s a little chit lack. We just arrived at Acupon, South Africa.¡±
Lefson had planned to do the Mount Everest climb with Oscar, but sadly he passed away. Just a few months later, she found Rupee.
¡°It was just a wonderful, special, amazing experience, and obviously, you know, in Oscar¡¯s honor.¡±
A free friend who is taking Joanne¡¯s love for adventure to incredible new heights.
And Rupee continues the journey in honor of Oscar.
Yeah, just another reason why to adopt.
Yes.
Really, indeed.
Rescue, rescue, rescue those pups.
Indeed, indeed.
Look at how far he¡¯s came, it¡¯s amazing.
I know. It¡¯s beautiful to see. |
