Giovanni Luman, a New Mexico Subway employee made a TikTok video of a stray dog that visited his eatery every day for food and posted it online making her an online sensation. The lovely stray dog showed up every night outside Luman’s restaurant and waited to be fed free of charge. In a kind gesture, the employee of the subway had not deterred from feeding her.
However, as the adorable dog showed up one night and waited for her meal, Luman decided to capture the heart-wrenching scenario and share it with his online audience. He shot the dog on the Chinese video app TikTok. “This stray dog has been coming to subway every night for the past year,” Giovanni Luhman wrote alongside the clip, “we always feed her.” He then wrote, “Her name is Subway Sallie,” in a continued remark.

Luman told the sources that he was fond of the dog, however, he couldn’t take the dog in as a pet as he owns a cat. He also explained that dropping her at the nearest rescue center wasn’t a great option either as many dogs have been rumoured to have died because of poor care. According to the sources, Luman is now looking to commence a pet food drive initiative for the stray dogs like Subway Sally so they are fed. He reportedly said that his cause might deter the families from abandoning their pet dogs on the streets if they cannot be provided with food.
