A few weeks before Christmas, my 89-year-old mum’s beloved elderly dog passed away, leaving her heartbroken and her home far too quiet. She decided not to get another dog — she worried her disability and age meant it wouldn’t be fair to a new pet, especially if she couldn’t outlive it.
But fate had other plans. A kind dog rescuer, who had helped rehome dogs to her in the past, learned about her loss. When a sweet 12-year-old dog arrived at the shelter — whose elderly owner had sadly passed away — she immediately thought of Mum and gave her a call.
Lonely and missing the comfort of a furry friend, Mum decided to “give it a go.” The moment they met, it was as if they’d been waiting for each other all along. Now, the two of them are inseparable — sharing cuddles, walks (or gentle toddles!), and endless companionship.
Both have been given a second chance at love and joy. Mum has her loyal friend again, and this little dog has found a home filled with warmth and care.
Sometimes, the right souls find each other just when they need it most. 🫡❤️🐶
