You needed a tissue warning on that one. May both dogs find forever homes. Thanking those who take the time and give the love and caring for all rescues, senior dogs included. Oh he is so precious!
Thanks, Hoss, I needed a good cry to go with the rain.
The look of relief in that dog's eyes made me get pretty weepy myself! Animal husbandry always fascinates and delights me.
Can't watch but am praying for good homes for these dogs. I'm thinking someday I may adopt older pets.
Why not? Won't play for you?

I put a space in the link so it would show up...
Older pets are awesome, DJ. My Gismo (Spideyman) was an older doxie. You don't have the puppy training, and yes there are little quirks they have from past owners, but the love-- that pure unconditional love.
Naw, it'll play. I just can't stand seeing animals so distraught. I'm weak. I know it happens, I just don't want to see it. It's good enough for me to know they were rescued.
I think she wants to not see sadness or have a tissue moment. It's OK Dana Jean. All is well for the doggie.
Exactly. I don't have the patience for puppy training, but I do have the patience for an older dog or cat, with their older issues. I have 'em too!
But DJ, seeing the appreciation in the dog's eyes and what they take it to is AWESOME!!! They will be tears of joy! No real suffering is shown (other than the dog looks pretty ratty).
I don't think excessive farting qualifies as an "older issue", DJ...
I'm the same way sometimes, Deej. It's not weakness, it's a legitimate way of dealing with some of the horrors the world has to offer. It's like some people can't bring themselves to be present when their animal must be put to sleep. It's okay when they can't. I think it'd be worse for the animal to see the owner in such grief. Vids like this one are uplifting as rescues always are, but also as reinforcement of the goodness in humanity.
Now, let's not discourage hoss from trying something new.
It's not that, some folks...ahem...suck all the air out of that warm n fuzzy posting room. So the rest of us have to find our niches to be known.I'm the same way sometimes, Deej.

For the record: I did NOT fart anywhere near Hoss at Ghost Brothers.
