A poor boy who worked at a warehouse near a closed bike shop noticed a scruffy dog visiting the store daily without fail. Curious to see where it was going, he followed it one day and discovered a heartbreaking secret.

18-year-old Chris was a seasoned market worker who had seen his fair share of street animals. But Ollie, a Shiba Inu, was quite different. He was friendly, well-mannered, and too well-groomed to be a stray dog.

When Chris first met Ollie, he found him standing in front of a closed bike shop, just staring at the huge glass panes. Friends at work told him that the dog belonged to the store owner, who suddenly stopped coming to work for several weeks.

Chris was upset whenever he saw the poor dog. He loved canines and was annoyed by how somebody could abandon their beloved pet on the streets and disappear just like that. So one day before heading to the café for lunch, he patted the dog on his head and gently said, “Hey there, Ollie…Want a sandwich, boy?”

From that day on, the curious dog would sprint towards Chris every lunch hour, wagging his tail excitedly at the sight of Chris’s lunchbox. But instead of devouring the snack, the dog would snatch it and disappear with the meal tightly clamped between his jaws…

Watching Ollie dash away with the meal every day and then return to the same spot until closing time left Chris worried and curious. At first, he assumed that Ollie must be having a litter of puppies somewhere and was taking the food to feed them. But Ollie was a male dog, and his unusual behavior didn’t quite add up.

With each passing day, Chris grew increasingly worried as he watched the mutt’s energy fade away. Ollie’s once-glossy coat was becoming dull, and he seemed to be troubled by an unknown source of distress. Chris even thought it could be due to abandonment, but he couldn’t quite put the finger on anything.

“Where is he going with the food without even taking a bite?”
One day during lunchtime, Chris watched as Ollie wagged his tail, excitedly licking his chops at the sight of the sandwich, only to snatch it and bolt away as usual. It left Chris pondering and more worried.

“If Ollie doesn’t have puppies and his owner has abandoned him, then where is he taking the food every day?” he suspected.
