The abandoned dog at the Hungarian border was shaking and barely able to walk. The golden retriever had pitched up seemingly out of nowhere that morning, passing through no-man’s land to lay his weary head on a piece of covered tarmac just past the Csengersima checkpoint on the Hungarian-Romanian border.
A woman from the Hungarian Red Cross bent down to offer him food, water and a kind word, but he was too weak to respond, so they called a local animal shelter to pick him up. Six hours later, he was still there.
