There are many good-hearted people who tend to help animals in need, but the owner of a restaurant located in Peru, went above and beyond when it came to helping homeless dogs.

Five years ago, something unexpected happened in Gerardo Ortiz’s restaurant, called Ajilalo , it was a visit from a slightly unusual client. A little dog wandering the streets stopped at the entrance of the restaurant with a look that showed that he was very hungry.

The man could easily have rejected and scared the dog away, but instead, Gerardo offered him a delicious meal made especially for him. From that day, a noble tradition began that continues to this day, no matter what happens, the little dog is in charge of fulfilling.

Every night from that day on, the homeless and hungry dog ​​visits Gerardo’s restaurant to get his free food.

It wasn’t long before word of Gerardo’s generosity spread to the entire local community of homeless puppies. So more dogs began to arrive accompanying the first visitor, and as expected, the man welcomed them all.

At present, many needy dogs come to the door of Gerardo’s restaurant, some are regulars and some are new visitors. But they all have something in common, and it is to be able to quench hunger through the delicious food that the man with a good heart gives them.

Generally, when Gerardo works on the grill, he can observe when a dog approaches and perches in front of his premises. They are always looking with a sweet little face, politely hoping that the rumor of the free food in the restaurant, is true.

In reality, Gerardo makes sure that each visitor receives their good portion of food, and at least, they continue with their full bellies.

Gerardo told The Dodo :

“For me, they are the best customers.”

Fortunately, her human clients don’t frown upon the noble gesture; on the contrary, they are inspired and bring food for the little dogs.

Gerardo added:

“Our clients react well to dogs and are even affectionate with them.”

Without a doubt, Gerardo’s sweet routine of feeding all the homeless dogs that visit him does more than calm their hunger.

Well, in reality, they feel important and know that the man will always be willing to calm one of the needs of his difficult life.

Gerardo commented:

«They do not pay us with money, but they pay us with their joy and wagging their tails. They are very grateful and we enjoy giving more than receiving. Since I was a child, I have loved animals. My mother always taught us to help others, both people and animals. She is my inspiration

Gerardo teaches us that it only takes a noble gesture to be able to change the life of an animal. We hope that your beautiful work will be rewarded.
