People decide to get a pet after planning everything, and then they take a drive to the local shelter.
They bring a pet to their homes, play with them, and spend some time to know their four-legged companion. If they find everything good, the lucky pet becomes a member of the family. However, some people have completely different stories to tell of how they met with their pets and Jack Jokinen from Fishtown, Philadelphia may have the most unique one.
Jack shared an incident on his Twitter account. He said, on Saturday morning his wife told him that an unknown dog is in his house. “When we found Suzy it was a combination of scared and confused. We had no idea how she got here and worried someone was in our house. She was scared and shaking from being wet and cold,” Jack told Bored Panda.
The man checked the doors and windows which were all closed. He feels something weird. Where did this mystery puppy come from? So, he checked the security cameras, and it turned out that the adorable puppy didn’t just appear out of thin air.
The video footage showed that Jack forgot to close his front door properly, which was left wide open during the night. Here’s what happened next: an injured stray dog saw an open door during the cold night and invited herself in.
When Jack saw the dog, he realized that she needs urgent help and took her to the vet.point 187 | It was confirmed that the 8-year-old stray has was severely malnourished and injured.point 260 |
“Suzy has a heart murmur, hook worn, infected paws, pad damage and atrophy in one of the legs from it being so damaged.point 99 | She needs a bunch of dental work but is very underweight so we need to get her weight up and have some tests to make sure she can be put under for procedures.point 225 |

He named the lucky dog Suzy who now lives with Jack’s family and another dog George. “We decided to adopt her because she had no owner, and our first dog George has brought us so much joy, we could imagine just putting her in the system,” he said.
“She has been great with our family, including our baby. She is very sweet and just wants to be loved. Suzy is on the mend and getting better every day. Her body is filling out and she is on antibiotics to treat some of her problems. She’s got a long road ahead but is on the way,” Jack added…
However, the family got a hefty $1000 bill after the vet visit and are asking people for donations. You can donate via Jokinen’s Venmo account and PayPal account.
“The twitter thread took a life of its own. I never expected it to turn into this but Suzy is now the internets dog. People have donated about $18k towards Suzy’s medical bills. We hope they aren’t that high and we can take the remaining funds to donate to a worthwhile cause.”
