A Stray Dog With a Hurt Paw Refuses Rescue From Humans, so the Community Comes Together to Walk Their Dogs as a Pack and Lure Him to Safety, Now They Have Found Him a Furever Home

What do you do when there is a stray dog, visibly in need of help, but refusing to come near anybody? There are many options, but sometimes it just takes a community coming together. 

In the case of Chip, the recently rescued 20lb male from Dallas, Texas, all the dog parents in the neighborhood had to come together in order to rescue him. This medium-built mutt was running around all week with a limp. It appeared that he hurt his paw and, very obviously, needed help. The only catch, however, is that he was terrified of humans. So he wasn't allowing himself to be caught. 

The locals noticed that he lit up around their dogs, though, so they came up with an idea together. The dog parents of the community came together to walk their dogs in a pack in hopes that the stray would follow them into an enclosed yard. It took hours, but the stray pup eventually got rescued, though not before he became the leader of the pack. Even with a hurt paw, this pup yearned to be part of a pack. Luckily, this neighborhood wanted that for him too.
