Happy dog story….
About two weeks ago I was getting a coke at the local gas station (pretty busy place) and I see this little dog wandering around. He was hiding under the cars and would get scared when they started and run out. Looked like he hadn’t eaten in a while but did have an old collar. Attendant said he had been there for two days. Worried he might get hit I bought him a beef stick and got him away from the cars, no one claimed him so I brought him home hoping to find the owner.
Not knowing anything about him and with mild weather we kept him outside - good thing because it turns out my wife was extremely allergic to him. Our labradoodle is fine around her. This was the coolest, nicest most appreciative dog I had ever seen . He had obviously been on his own for a while. He would sleep up against the back door on the pillow we set out for him.
There was no way we could keep him- wife couldn’t handle it. No chip and no responses on any of the websites or apps we posted him on. No shelter in Houston would take a dog, only option was a shelter that would put him down after 10 days and he was just too good to consider that….. they didn’t even say they would take him.
We get his shots taken care of and start asking around with no luck and no good options. I really don’t know what we were gonna do. This dog just wanted to be part of a family and was willing to work for it. He was very well behaved.
Finally we get a message that someone is interested and would like to bring their dog and kids to meet him. The dogs were quick best friends and the little girl fell in love immediately! He got to go home to a loving family and live his best life with two little kids to play with!
He looks so happy in his new home!
