Answer 
One day while coming home from school, I saw a puppy in the garbage shivering in cold. Her mother left him all alone over there with no food. I took him and gave him the little food I had from my lunchbox. I also gave him water in a bowl from my water bottle. As it was cold, I found a rag nearby with which I covered him to make him safe from the severe cold.
