Skippy: Forgotten in a War That Wouldn’t End
For over two years, war has torn through Ukraine — a slow, relentless storm that left heartbreak in its path. Skippy, a tiny toy terrier with a heart far too big for his body, was born into this chaos. He never knew peace, only the trembling ground beneath him and the whispers of fear in the air.
His family loved him. But as the war dragged on and danger crept closer, they were forced to flee. This time, there was no warning. No time to pack. No space left in the arms that carried children and hope and fear.
Skippy was left behind.
Just 1.5 years old — still a baby — Skippy waited faithfully at the door that never opened again. He didn’t know why his people were gone. He didn’t know why his food bowl stayed empty, why his little body grew thinner and weaker each day. All he knew was that he had been loved once. And then he wasn’t.
He curled into a dusty corner, ears alert for the sound of footsteps that never came. His soft cries echoed through the silence of the abandoned home, but no one answered. The days grew colder. The nights were endless. The fear, unbearable.
But somehow… he survived.
Just when time was running out, rescue volunteers found him. Starving. Shaking. Silent. But still breathing. When they reached out with gentle hands, he didn’t run. He leaned in. Because even after being left behind, Skippy still believed in people.
Now, safe at last, Skippy has begun to heal. He is neutered, toilet trained, and wonderfully good with other dogs, cats, and children. His little heart is still full of love — despite everything.
Skippy was born into war, abandoned in silence, and left to die.
But he held on. Will you be the one who finally holds him forever?
