Actions speak SO much louder than words, and the reaction of this “just rescued” dog speaks for all dogs sitting in shelters across the nation. This sweet girl named Bella spent the greater part of her life in a small concrete cage in a city shelter. For many stray or unwanted pets, the shelter is their last stop or a place where many lose hope of ever finding a forever home … especially if they’ve been playing the waiting game as long as Bella has.
Howl of a Dog heard this precious girl’s silent cry for help and pulled her from the local shelter. Just a few moments after being rescued, on the way to the vet, Bella did something so simple but something most of us take for granted. She fell into a peaceful, relaxed slumber right on her savior’s lap. Bella finally felt safe, knowing she was in good hands. What she doesn’t realize, however, is that it’s just the beginning. Her life will now be filled with love, care, and happiness.
