Picking the perfect dog from the shelter can sometimes be a hard decision.
After all, they’re not just a pet, they’re going to be the next addition to your family.
“Mommy, that one!”
But one little girl named “G” had no problem choosing which one to take home.
The girl’s mother, Audra Spurio, recorded a video of her toddler pointing to a very sickly pit bull shaking in the back of the kennel.
“Let the doggy out. Need help.”
After watching the sad pittie place her front paws on top of the bars, the 2-year-old was even more firm in her decision to adopt her.
“Being labeled a pit bull can doom a shelter dog’s chances of adoption.”
This was a dog who “didn’t have a name, she stunk like mange and had snot running from her nose.” She had all but given up on life, but G gave her new hope.
At first, the scared dog panicked and refused to walk when the adults tried to take her out of the kennel. But the moment G took the leash, she was more than happy to be led around the shelter.
The little girl was instantly drawn to the senior pooch, and the connection between the two is almost too sweet for words!
Many shelters have a play area where you can get to know your potential new pet. So when the two girls finally got a chance to go outside and play on the grass, this doggie came back to life!
Wherever the toddler went, the dog followed. When G ran, the pittie ran right with her!
And when they needed to have a private chat away from the prying ears of adults, they conspired to squeeze themselves into a nearby dog house.
