#NSTViral: Woman puts fear aside to rescue stray dog

Melaka: A woman, known as @wander_adibah on social media, overcame her fear of dogs to rescue a stray animal from a roundabout in Gangsa, Batu Berendam. The woman expressed concern for the dog's safety, fearing it would be hit by a vehicle. She noted that despite her fear of dogs, her primary worry was the possibility of the animal being run over.

In a Monday post, she recounted how the dog initially seemed afraid of her but eventually allowed her to coax it into her car. Adibah took the dog, whom she named Bruno, to a supermarket in Batu Berendam, providing food and water while waiting for the dog's owner to come forward. When no one claimed the dog, she took Bruno to a veterinary clinic for a medical examination.

Netizens praised her actions, with many describing her efforts as unusual and admirable, particularly her courage in bringing the dog inside her car to protect it from traffic. Bruno's owner, from Taman Angkasa Nuri, Batu Berendam, had previously reported the pet missing on August 9.
