After a long wait, this shelter dog has found her forever home!
Dog Finds Forever Home After 640 Days At Shelter, Video Goes Viral of Dog Looking Back
Who’s ready to cry on a Monday?!
A 4-year-old terrier mix named Louise, who spent 640 days in a NY animal shelter, has finally found her forever home!
An Instagram video of her emotional send-off has now gone viral, for the way she looked back at the shelter as she was leaving with a staff member.
“The way she took one last look back 🥹,” the shelter wrote in the caption.
“Two weeks ago, the perfect applicant came along for our longest shelter resident, Louise. After a few meets, we knew this was her forever.”
In the video, soundtracked by Good Neighbours’ “Home” a tearful staff member walks Louise out of the shelter, passing other emotional staffers before handing the tail-wagging dog to her “person.”
Rachel Oldenburger, the adoption and foster coordinator at Four Legs Good at Rockland Green CARES Animal Shelter in Pomona, N.Y., tells People, “To see her be overlooked so many times, and then to go viral for the world to see gives me so much hope for all the shelter dogs around the country who just need that ONE person to come along for them.”
“Shelter dogs are fabulous dogs, and I hope Louise’s story inspires even just one person to go adopt a local shelter dog,” Rachel added
