A boy with a good heart saved millions of unnecessary dogs by finding their owners, and was named child of the year
Roman McConn was named Kid of the Year in 2018 by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA).
At the age of four, a youngster who later saved 1,300 canines at the age of seven.
McConn was presented with a check for $20,000 on the well-known program, which will enable him to carry on with this admirable endeavor.
Giving dogs the best chance to find the ideal home, in my opinion, is really important for them, adds Roman. «I think a lot of other kids ought to do the same,»
The young man founded Project Freedom Ride, a group dedicated to removing strays dogs from Texas shelters.
When Roman was four years old, he requested that instead of receiving gifts for his birthday, his family make a financial contribution to a shelter for abandoned dogs.
Jennifer, Roman’s mother, provides for him. In December 2016, they transported 30 rescued dogs from a Texas shelter to Washington.
The youngster and his mother have since given hundreds more animals a second shot.
Roman was really concerned about what would happen to the dogs because they were on the shelters’ euthanasia list.
The young boy started making films in which he spoke about each resident of the shelter, including their age, terrible circumstances, and personalities.
He pleaded with viewers to have pity and adopt a dog.
But it costs money to save stray pets. Money is required for food, temporary accommodation, veterinary treatments, and transportation.
Volunteers assist with this; their hearts were touched by the boy’s nice comments.
Roman invests a lot of time in his cause and, as a result of his devotion, became the face of Project Freedom Ride.
But he also continues to be a typical 7-year-old kid. The boy enjoys jiu-jitsu, football, swimming, watching cartoons, and collecting Lego.
