Brandon Turnbow\u2019s Valentine\u2019s Day took an unexpected turn when he witnessed a small dog being abused while speeding down Highway 171 in Texas on his motorcycle. On his way to meet his dad for a day of bike riding, Turnbow spotted a man brutally beating a small Jack Russell. Livid, he quickly decided to confront the man, but before he could say anything, the assailant threw the dog onto the curb and drove away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Knowing he couldn\u2019t leave the injured dog behind, Turnbow slowly and carefully approached the trembling animal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Turnbow feared the dog would run into oncoming traffic if he made any sudden movements, but thankfully the dog didn\u2019t budge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTaking a chance, I folded my body over him to see if he would bite or trust me,\u201d Turnbow wrote on Facebook. \u201cHe then laid his shaking body into mine, so I stood up with him in my arms and sat him on the bike seat. Now what?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Turnbow was aware that he needed to act fast, yet he didn\u2019t want to frighten the dog more than necessary. Thus, before continuing down the road, he started up his motorcycle so that the pup could get accustomed to the noise and vibrations. Once the dog appeared relaxed, Turnbow gently placed him in his bag.He fell in love with the dog as soon as he saw its big, inquisitive eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI was driving when I looked in my rearview mirror and saw a man toss a dog into the air and then drive away. So, I decided to follow him just so I could give him the finger.\u201d Brandon said on Facebook. \u201cAnd now I have a new co-pilot \u2013 meet Mr. Davidson.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That day, Turnbow took the pup he named Mr. Davidson after his Harley-Davidson motorcycle home with him. Luckily, Mr. Davidson loved riding on motorcycles!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI frequently glance back to see if the dog is uncomfortable, and to my amazement, he actually seems to enjoy it\u2026 So we had a 45-mile journey ahead of us to get back home, and Mr. Davidson was ecstatic! I believe at times he became frustrated with me for blocking his wind!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 10-year-old dog quickly got used to living at Turnbow\u2019s house and loved his new dad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr. Davidson was just as loved by Turnbow as the dog was loved by him. He even wrote a song about the pup!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
