In February, tire repair workers Ozimar Queiroz and Lindomar Queiroz arrived at their shop in Porto Velho’s North Zone to find an unexpected visitor—a small, abandoned dog by the roadside.
The dog, unable to walk due to its front legs being turned backward, stirred compassion in Ozimar, affectionately called Galego.
He decided to care for the dog temporarily until a permanent home could be found. Despite twenty days passing, however, a new home had not yet been secured.
The repairmen named the dog “Seal” due to its resemblance to the animal in the way it moved.
Throughout the day, they would occasionally move the dog around, yet in his attempts to seek companionship, Seal would often drag himself through the mud to join a stray cat that lingered near the shop.
Lindomar shared with G1 that although the dog was gentle and clearly in need of veterinary attention, they lacked the means to provide it.

<p>“We called him Seal because of his appearance. He was very underweight when we found him, but with regular meals, he’s gaining some weight,” Lindomar explained, noting the challenge of managing in the rainy conditions.</p>
<p>Their small act of kindness soon caught the attention of social media, leading to Seal’s adoption by a couple from Porto Velho. The couple decided to give him a forever home and a new name, cementing his fresh start.</p>

<p>One of his new guardians, economics student Michele, expressed her immediate bond with him. “Meeting him was love at first sight. His situation touched me deeply. He is so gentle and sweet,” she said. “I love him dearly. It’s a true mother’s love.”</p>
