It is often said that dogs hold a special love for those who care for them, and this inseparable duo of Pitties would likely affirm that sentiment if they had the chance!
Luna and Obi have spent most of their youthful years together. They navigated the often-tough streets of New York City, completely reliant on one another.
However, their lives changed drastically when law enforcement rescued them from the streets and transported them to a nearby shelter!
Meet Luna and Obi
Emily, a passionate dog lover and foster caregiver, could not resist when she came across a post about Luna and Obi being rescued from the streets.
“Upon seeing the Instagram post about Luna and Obi being picked up in Harlem, I knew I had to help,” Emily shared with The Dodo.
She warmly took both pups into her home, where a thrilling new chapter in their lives began.
Upon arriving at their new foster home, Luna and Obi were emaciated and required a dedicated feeding regimen. Emily was there for them, providing around-the-clock care, and soon—both Pitties transformed into vibrant, healthy pups!
Once they recognized that food and shelter were secure, Luna and Obi began to reveal their true characters.
Luna took a liking to indoor living, thriving in Emily’s snug apartment, while Obi displayed a more exuberant personality, clearly needing a larger space with a vast yard to play in.
The Day of Adoption
Just weeks after entering foster care, Luna and Obi received delightful news! Obi found his forever family in Albany, New York.
A couple named Brian and Melissa, who already had an adult Pittie named Garcia, instantly fell in love with Obi when they met him. They hurried to Emily’s place to welcome him into their family. From the moment they met Obi, it was as if everything fell into place.
Obi forged a quick bond with his new family, and soon he was ready to start his new life at home.
The couple’s children, Hannah and Josh, were overjoyed at the arrival of Obi; it felt like he completed their family’s puzzle.
Meanwhile, Luna found her forever home with Mimi and Nate, a couple eager to embrace dog ownership. When they encountered Luna, they were immediately smitten!
Luna thrives in her new city apartment, enjoying her dad’s guitar playing, and despite her reserved nature, she loves accompanying her new family everywhere!
A Heartwarming Reunion
Four months after they settled into their forever homes, Luna and Obi were finally reunited!
Their new families organized this special meetup, giving them the chance to reconnect after so long apart. The burning question was: “Would they remember each other?”
The reunion left everyone astonished!
The moment they saw each other, Luna and Obi erupted with excitement! It was as if they had been reunited exactly as they had been before—proving that their bond had remained unbroken.
“They barked at each other for a moment, which was expected, then they just clicked. They began running around happily, sniffing each other, and enjoying zoomies like brother and sister,” Melissa recounted.
Obi and Luna cherished their reunion, reliving the joyful moments of their past and savoring each other’s company once more.
Despite living in separate homes now, one thing is certain—each will forever hold a treasured spot in the other’s heart!
