A shelter is not a place for dogs, and we all know that. Unfortunately, many of our furry friends are still forced to spend the majority of their lives in that dark place. It is especially heartbreaking to see senior dogs behind the bars of a kennel. They deserve a warm home and all the love in this world, and knowing there’s a chance these poor old canines may never find a forever home truly breaks the heart.
The story of one senior dog, a resident of a Texas shelter, is particularly touching. Yet, to the delight of every true dog lover, and thanks to people with big hearts, it has a happy ending.
Heartbreaking Fate
A senior Chihuahua named Guac was not pampered by life when she was found as a stray at the age of 15 in January 2024 and taken to a Texas shelter. This poor dog spent several months between the four walls of the kennel, which was at least better than the street, as it provided her hope for a brighter future. Her happy moment came when, against all odds, the shelter managed to find her a home and she was soon with her new family. Sadly, her fairytale didn’t last long; after just two months, that family surrendered Guac back to the shelter.
The little dog was completely devastated, a situation that also broke the hearts of the shelter staff, especially since they realized it would be hard to find a new home for her again. However, they were determined not to give up.
Finally, Where She Belongs
Upon seeing how her former owners handed Guac over wrapped in a blanket without any emotion, the employees of The PAWerful Rescue felt sadness and anger. However, this heartless act sparked their determination to ensure a brighter future for her. Their persistence paid off when they connected with a special family in Colorado.
After enduring so much heartbreak, Guac became a part of a family with many canine siblings and loving humans, now known on Instagram as The Fellowship of the Bean. A video posted by her new mom on July 3, 2024, via her account @the_wee_ones_, captures this moment perfectly.
