Muhammad Tahla was forced to leave Ukraine when Russia decided to start the invasion and bomb the territory. He had to leave everything. But he refused to give up his dog Oscar, a one-and-a-half-year-old husky he considers like a son.
In a circumstance of this magnitude, he has had to dodge numerous obstacles to be able to cross the border and get to safety. He would have had it easier without Oscar, who despite his unconditional love for him has been a problem for this 26-year-old. Fortunately, Tahla was clear that she would only leave the country accompanied by her dog.
Oscar was kicked by border guards for bothering other people.
"No airline allowed me to travel to Pakistan with Oscar and many guards prevented us from taking trains to Poland," Tahla recalled. Their situation was critical and they were "completely stuck." On the other hand, several of his friends did manage to leave the country with relative ease.
None of them had a dog as a companion. So they also did not understand that he did not want to abandon him to his fate to save himself: "Many of my friends who managed to leave Ukraine told me: Come on, it's just an animal that costs less than your life ."

This general medicine student, who lived in Lviv, had to put up with guards kicking Oscar when he barked or approached other people. "People had no respect for the life of a dog. Huskies try to attract the attention of many people," said this Ukrainian of Pakistani origin.
I could not do anything. If he answered or intervened, they would not be allowed to pass and would continue to have to search, in a race against time, for a new way to escape from the Ukraine. "It prevented me from reacting, otherwise I would have really liked to do it," he said.
The European Union no longer poses problems for people with pets to cross

It cost them a lot to be able to leave the Ukraine together

Both are very happy with the family that has taken them in: "My hosts in Poland treat me like one of their family. They feed us and take good care of us."
As if that were not enough, the huskie has fit in wonderfully with the dogs of his foster family.
