Mr. Thompson was a quiet figure in town—an old man who lived alone and walked his dog, Max, every day. Most people barely noticed him.
One morning, on his usual walk, Mr. Thompson tripped and fell. He lay there, struggling, as people walked past without stopping. No one helped.
But Max did.
The little dog barked for help. When no one came, he ran home, grabbed his leash in his mouth, and rushed back. He tried tugging Mr. Thompson up, refusing to give up. His determination finally caught a jogger’s attention, who ran over and helped the old man to his feet.
Word of Max’s brave act spread quickly. In a town that once overlooked Mr. Thompson, it was his dog who reminded everyone what true loyalty looks like.
