This is another case of a senior who wanted a dog that would match his mellowed-out mood. He found exactly what he was looking for when he met Gus, who stole his heart right away. The two hit it off the second the shelter staff brought Gus out of his kennel to meet his new friend, and then he was off to his new forever home not long after.
This picture goes to show just how happy they are together, and that was when the pair had just met. Now, their bond is even stronger.
All the Hugs
Unfortunately, too many people expect to go into a shelter and find a newborn puppy. They want a pet that they feel isn’t “damaged” already, and so many senior dogs and dogs with disabilities, etc., never get the chance at the love that they deserve.
But there are those caring few that come along with open minds and open hearts. The ones that see the good and the hope in the eyes of those older dogs. Like this guy who took a chance on this senior doggo and couldn’t be happier with his decision. And hey, most senior dogs are already potty trained!
First Trip to the Park
When you’re in the shelter, you don’t really get too much exercise. Shelter doggies depend on volunteers to come and walk them around and take them out on adventures. So, when this guy went to the park with his family for the first time, he wore himself out playing with his new brother!
They spent a few hours running around, and this is the aftermath of their day at the park. Mom couldn’t help but snap this shot of her two adorable little boys napping together on the ride home.
Asleep on Dad’s Lap
Puppies have to get their fair share of sleep, especially when they have an exciting long day like this one. He couldn’t even make it over to his seat he fell asleep right on dads lap instead.
Hopefully, dad can drive safely with his passenger. What a truly precious moment to catch on film. Thanks for sharing!
That Face
This photo displays the perfect example of “puppy eyes.” It may seem like they flash them at us when they want something, but the truth is, they can’t help it – which makes it that much more adorable!
Who cares what this little guy wants? We’re going to give it to him no matter what. Who could say no to that face? Okay, who would even want to say no to it?
