A dog’s sense of smell is believed to be 10,000 to 100,000 times more acute than a human’s!

That’s why they are often used as military dogs to detect contraband and locate injured soldiers. Most importantly, they can also catch the smell of explosives like landmines even from afar, saving thousands to millions of soldiers.

Of course, they use their strong sense of smell to appetize themselves from the smell of a yummy meal or treat.

But on top of all these things, dogs can also smell human kindness.

Each morning, without fail, Sora and his owner would usually walk their way to the corner where Bruno was once residing.

That day, Sora’s eyes lit up with sheer joy after seeing Bruno, and in return, Bruno greeted the canine with genuine kindness.

Inspired by the overwhelming support from the online community, the owner seized the opportunity to extend a helping hand to Bruno.

To financially help the friendly homeless man, he launched a donation campaign that garnered a whopping 5,800 Euros!

However, despite the outpour of generosity from the people, an unforeseen obstacle suddenly emerged.

Despite the generous sum raised, Bruno found himself bound to the streets due to bureaucratic hurdles.

Banking regulations demanded a valid passport for withdrawal, a document Bruno lacked because he lost his original document and possessed only a copy.

Unfazed by the problem, Sora’s owner tried his best to resolve the issue alongside Bruno. He really wanted to see him get through to the brighter days.
