A homeless puppy searches for food every day at the home of a shelter worker in Sancti Spíritus.

Animal protectors from the province of Sancti Spíritus shared on social media this Sunday the story of a stray dog that goes every day to a volunteer's home looking for some food.

The ARCA Sancti Spíritus Foundation published on Facebook that "every day, she is waiting in front of our volunteer's door to look for her little potato."

ARCA shared an image showing the dog outside the house, waiting for its food. "Feed a stray, and you feed your own soul," pointed out the foundation.

The organization has urged people on several occasions to feed stray dogs within their means, even amid the scarcity.

"You just have to understand that they are also hungry, and with a little of what you have left, you can feed these poor little animals without a home," they pointed out on social media.

ARCA has also praised the gesture of some protectors who, every day, add new dogs to the list of canines they feed daily.

In this regard, he mentioned Ali, who added two dogs nicknamed the blonde and the chubby one. "For them, this might be the only food of the day," they pointed out.

Recently, an animal advocate called for help from those who wish to contribute to raise 800 dollars, with the goal of buying a house in the countryside and establishing a dog shelter in Güines, a municipality in the province of Mayabeque, Cuba.

According to the message shared by Alberto Luiz Cruz on Facebook, the house they intend to purchase has ample space, water, and electricity, making it an ideal place to accommodate the animals.

Requests for help on social media are common, with animal protectors emphasizing that their work is unsustainable without community support.

For example, in recent days, animal welfare advocates in Havana raised money to operate on a dog that survived the explosion of the Saratoga Hotel.
