Meet Govind bhai Patel. A mechanical engineer, who worked for Govt of Gujarat for most part of his life. He once had a beloved dog with the name "Johnny". So dear was Johnny that he purchased shares and property at his name. After his wife and beloved dog died, he found a new meaning to his life and decided to dedicate it for street dogs. Today he walks 20 kms every morning and on his way he feeds stray dogs, more than 20 kg of milk, biscuits and sweet halwa. His house is now converted into a Dog Ashram. When asked how he supports his ventures, he replied shares on Johnny's name gives him plenty of dividends. His dream: to make a temple for dogs.
