Dog in Indiana Who Cried Endlessly at the Rescue Gets Good News When a Video of Him Goes Viral on Facebook
The life of a once-sad puppy has become happy after more than 260 days at an Indiana animal shelter.
Major is a terrier-pit bull mix who is 4 years old and was found on the street and taken in by the Humane Society for Hamilton County.
When they got to the shelter, the team called the number on his microchip.
An Animal Welfare League of Hamilton County Facebook post said that Major’s family was supposed to come get him, but they never did.
After being in his cage, Major had been very stressed since then, and his evenings were horrible because he would sit in his room and cry “endlessly,” the post said.
More than 260,000 people saw the post that showed Major looking sad. The staff hoped to help him find a loving home with people who didn’t have cats.
There are no more tears from Major, and the dog has finally found a loving home.
After Major won the hearts of people on social media, the Humane Society shared the news in a new post on Facebook.
On May 18, a touching video was shared that shows Major happily running up to the workers to say goodbye and then leaving with his new family.
“As he walked out the door with his new family, we couldn’t help but feel a major-sized hole in our hearts, but it’s quickly filled with happiness knowing that he’s found his perfect match,” the post said.
A huge number of people who have been watching Major’s story from the start have kept getting the good news.
Thanks to everyone who told Major’s story. Your help and kindness made a huge difference. “Your story spread far and wide, and it led Major right to the loving arms of his new family,” the humane society wrote.
“Thank you for being a part of Major’s journey and for helping us make miracles happen.”
They also told people in a different post that there are a lot of animals that need homes.
The post said, “Every dog here has their own story.” While some of them may not have gone popular, they all deserve love, care, and a safe place to call home. They feel stressed out at the shelter, and they have to wait every day for their turn.
“They have so much affection to give and are waiting for someone like you to change their world.”
