Tiny ‘Little Bear’ Found Sleeping In A Store Parking Lot Begs Shoppers To Take Him Home
In a busy store parking lot, a tiny puppy sat all alone, feeling the bite of hunger and the chill of the air. Ace missed his mama deeply, and his little heart ached with sadness.
Seeing shoppers walk by, he fixed his pleading eyes on them, hoping someone would stop, show him kindness, and take him to a warm, safe place.
A Tiny Pup in Distress

“He is about 4–5 weeks old. He was supposedly dumped off there …,” Tsosie wrote on Instagram.
Wasting no time, Tsosie rushed to the store and found the little pup huddled next to a car for warmth.
The moment she approached, the frightened pup bolted behind a nearby car wheel.

Gently speaking to the little one, Tsosie reassured him until he began to trust her and came out of hiding.
After holding the puppy in her arms, later named Ace, she searched the area for his mom or siblings. Sadly, they were nowhere to be found.

Determined to help Ace, Tsosie contacted Az Hidden Jem Rescue in Phoenix, Arizona, who immediately agreed to take him in.
“He looked like a little bear and [was] just confused,” the rescue shared on Instagram.
Ace was promptly taken to a vet for a checkup, where he was diagnosed with mange and given the necessary treatment.
Recovering And Getting Adopted
