The Amazing Story of Lilica: A Dog Who Lets No Animal Go Hungry

Imagine that you are feeding a hungry dog and instead of eating all of the food you brought for her at once, she picks up the bag and brings it home. Every night, she eats only part and take the rest with her.

This is the true story of Lilica, whose generosity will inspire you.
