Couple Donates €2,500 Reward To Puttinu Cares After Lost Dog Is Found

A heartwarming story has taken an even more generous turn after a €2,500 reward offered for the safe return of a missing dog was instead donated to Puttinu Cares.

Last week, Alan and his wife Chantelle were on holiday when their beloved dog, Louie, escaped from the pet sitter. After four anxious days, Louie was found safe by Cleaven Farrugia and Cristina.

Wanting to thank them for bringing their dog home, Alan and Chantelle offered the pair a €2,500 reward. However, in an incredible act of generosity, they declined the money and instead agreed that it should be donated to Puttinu Cares.

Sharing the story, Puttinu Cares thanked everyone involved for turning “a moment of relief into an opportunity to help others”, while Alan and Chantelle also expressed their gratitude for the charity’s ongoing work supporting those in need.

What began as the search for a missing family pet has now ended with a meaningful donation that will help support families facing serious illness.

What an incredible act of kindness.
