Experience the Joyful Reunion Between This Ohio Military Mom and Her Beloved Dog

Date:

Goodbyes can be incredibly tough. When you deeply care for someone, the duration of separation—be it a week, a month, or even a year—doesn’t seem to alter the feeling of emptiness. For dogs, the farewell to their owners is just the beginning of a profound emotional struggle. Unaware of the lengthy separation ahead, these loyal companions often spend days watching the doors and windows, anxiously awaiting the return of their beloved humans.

This was precisely the case for Murphy, a devoted family dog, when his owner, Janna, had to leave for military duties. Their bond was undeniable; they shared countless cherished memories and simply couldn’t envision life without one another. Hence, it was heart-wrenching for Janna to leave Murphy behind at her parents’ house in Salem, Ohio, as she embarked on military training.

Murphy Couldn’t Believe His Eyes

They spent eight long months apart, longing for the moment they would reunite. Janna expressed her heartache on Instagram, stating, “Anyone who tells you breakups are hard has never loved and had to leave a dog.” Acknowledging the pain of the separation, she reminisced about their time together, listing all the beautiful memories they created.

“Thank you so, so, so much for being the best roommate I could’ve dreamed of, for only destroying two pairs of my Nikes, for being the only running buddy I need, for being an amazing vacuum, and for giving me the chance to be your big spoon every night I go to sleep,” she added.

Finally, the day they had both been waiting for arrived! Janna returned home to Ohio, eagerly anticipating Murphy’s joyful greeting, but instead, she found him looking confused, hesitant to approach her until she called his name. Only then did he slowly come forward, still processing the reunion.

When Murphy finally caught a whiff of the familiar scent he had longed for, he erupted into excitement, showering Janna with affectionate cuddles and kisses as they embraced. In the delight of the moment, his exuberance even knocked her to the ground, but she didn’t mind one bit.
