It is possible that saving a dog from a shelter will turn out to be one of the finest choices you will ever make. Not only will you get a hilarious and endearing companion, but you will also gain a lifelong buddy. How appreciative a dog can be was shown in the video below by the lady who got to see it herself. Kayla Filoon is a student who enjoys helping at an animal sanctuary in her community.

She met Russ, a young puppy who was suffering from various health issues, in this manner. It didn’t take long for the two to become fast friends, and the lady realized they were intended to be best friends. Forever!

His owner told The Dodo, “He came in as a stray, and he was extremely bruised up.” “He was terribly battered up,” the young lady said. On his tail and ears, he had a lot of lost hair.” In addition, he was quite underweight. Just sitting there, gazing at me, was all he could do… And I thought to myself, “I’ve got to get him right now.”

In order to give the dog a taste of what it’s like to be at home, she invited Russ to stay with her. The dog will not stop cuddling with his new owner in order to express his gratitude for providing him with a forever home and showering him with love.

“One evening, I’m sitting on a chair, doing my schoolwork, and he’s trying to figure out how he can snuggle with me,” she said. “He’s such a sweetheart, really.”
