It is often not easy to integrate into society and, unfortunately, prejudices still exist.
Some disabilities make things even more difficult. In these situations, it is not easy to keep a smile on your face and stay happy and cheerful.
But there are always real warriors who are cheerful and light-hearted in life, regardless of the difficulties that are not their fault.
Today’s story shows how differences and difficulties can be strength if we know how to use them.
Misunderstood, but beautiful in its own way
A day, Abigal and JeremiahA dog-loving couple from Madison, Wisconsin, visited the shelter to find their new best friend.
After arriving, staff said they had a litter of puppies, but only one remained.
When they saw the dog, they couldn’t resist it. It was happy, playful and full of energy… everything they wanted.
However, Shelter employees told them that this dog suffered from a brainstem lesion which had certain consequences on its behavior. The couple accepted this burden wholeheartedly and decided to brighten up the life of this charming dog.
Over the years in his new family, Maddieas they called her, showed that she was a regular dog with just a few unique personality traits.
“We kind of discovered over the years that she was really a bit of an idiot,” said Abigal for The Dodo, “I wouldn’t say there’s anything really wrong with her.”
Aside from being goofy and full of positive energy, Maddie also has an adorable mark, as her tongue is always sticking out.
Maddie also enjoys going to the park in Madison with her mom and dad, and her favorite toy is a tennis ball.
But at first, no matter how hard she tried to play with other puppies, she would either get distracted or they would run away. Unfortunately, some dogs didn’t understand her uniqueness, so poor Maddie often had to play alone or with her mom and dad.

Special friendship
Although Maddie was always happy and playful, it was sad that the other dogs didn’t understand her and didn’t want to play with her.
However, Maddie didn’t give up and she wanted to show them how she too could play and that she had hidden talents that she would delight them with.
That’s why one day she took her mom and dad to the park and played the ball game she knows best.
Since Maddie didn’t understand the concept of catch and fetch, she played a game where her mom and dad threw the ball to each other and she chased after it.
It was a fun new game that also piqued the curiosity of the other dogs. Suddenly, all the dogs in the park were chasing the ball and Maddie was the main star who started it all.

It was definitely a turning point for Maddie that gave her confidence and helped her make new friends.
Since she didn’t like crowds, she preferred to hang out with just one dog. And soon there appeared a dog who had no problem with her differences and who loved spending all day with Maddie.
Although she never despaired, Maddie could finally be truly happy because it was something she had always dreamed of, to make a true friend who would understand her.
