A huge Alabai lay right in the middle of the road, blocking traffic and causing a jam: one of the drivers approached him and saw something terrible
Rush hour. The heat was close to forty degrees. Drivers were losing patience: the traffic jam had been standing for thirty minutes — all because of him — the huge white Alabai lying right in the middle of the road.
The dog looked like a stone. It didn’t move or react to honking. It just calmly watched the passing cars without taking its eyes off them, as if guarding something.
One nervous, sweaty driver shouted through the window:
— That’s an Alabai! It can bite you in half! Who will go near it?! Call the police!
No one approached. Two cars failed to avoid each other and bumped — glass shattered, bumpers cracked, curses flew. But the dog still lay there. Giant, white, with a piercing gaze.
Suddenly, the door of a cheap foreign car opened. A tall, slender man in a white shirt — clearly an office clerk — exhaled and walked toward the Alabai. Everyone held their breath.
The dog stood up. Slowly. Massive paws, shaggy back. It stood on its hind legs. Someone in a car shouted:
— That’s it! He’s done for!
The man closed his eyes in fear, but then suddenly noticed something terrible
The man stepped back, but then noticed: the dog’s belly was round and heavy. She was pregnant. He saw her paws trembling. Her eyes were no longer threatening — they were full of pain.
He stepped closer and carefully reached out his hand. And then something incredible happened — the Alabai quietly lowered itself on its front paws and pressed its nose into his palm.
The man turned to the drivers and shouted:
— She’s unwell! She’s not aggressive, she just… she can’t go on anymore!
Someone called the vet. Someone came out with a bottle of water. People approached carrying towels, pillows, one even brought an umbrella. Within an hour, the Alabai was carefully loaded into a car, and the road was clear again.
But the story didn’t end there.
Three weeks later, the same man — the one who stepped out first — received a letter. Inside was a photo: five snow-white puppies in a small cozy shelter.
On the back was written:
“She survived. And she is grateful. The puppies are waiting for their hero. If you want one of them — just say the word. We named one after you.”
