Tia, a brave single mother, embarked on a hiking expedition with her father, who was in his seventies. Little did they know that their journey would lead them to a Springer spaniel in distress. The dog was severely injured and deserted with no sign of its owners. Tia’s compassionate nature moved her to take the 55lb dog to safety, despite the enormous challenge it posed. Her selfless act of kindness has touched hearts worldwide, spreading a message of humanity and hope. After reaching the summit, Tia and her father began their descent when they stumbled upon the injured spaniel. Tia realized that leaving the dog there would mean certain death. Driven by her compassion, Tia decided to rescue the dog, even though it was fraught with danger. During her interview with Pickler and Ben, which garnered over 61,000 views on YouTube, Tia revealed the thought process behind her risky rescue mission. She recounted how another family had discovered the dog before her, but could not provide help. Worried about the animal’s welfare, Tia felt compelled to undertake the perilous task of bringing the injured dog down the mountain.
Despite the dog’s injuries and inability to walk, Tia persevered. She embarked on a challenging six-mile hike that lasted six hours, braving treacherous terrain that included snow-covered paths and even losing the trail at one point. However, Tia remained determined and never gave up. Although she was a gymnast with powerful quads, carrying the 55lb dog was no easy feat. Nevertheless, Tia felt like she received divine assistance, making the weight on her shoulders seem lighter.
Upon reaching civilization, they discovered more details about Boomer’s unfortunate fate. While hiking with his owners, he stumbled into a snow crevice and plummeted 100ft before tumbling another 200ft. Despite their best efforts, they were unable to locate him and assumed he was dead. Tia couldn’t shake off the sorrowful story of Boomer that evening and woke up resolved to take care of him. She felt an unshakeable connection to him and wanted to ensure his well-being. Tia spoke from her heart with Boomer’s owners, who eventually agreed to let her take Boomer. Though he still requires surgery to mend his bones, Boomer has improved considerably thanks to Tia’s altruistic gesture. The touching story of Boomer and Tia is available on Youtube.
