Many People Rejected This Cute Dog in Christmas Sweater For Month's Finally Gets Loving Home

January 4, 2023

The Miami Dade Animal Services last year received a nice puppy named Bobby who had been abandoned; however, after two months of waiting, the canine was placed on the “code red” list.

Before a picture of the young Pit Bull mixed with a mournful expression and a green sweater went viral on social media, things did not look good for him.

Urgent Dogs of Miami, who were trying to save him, posted the picture. Volunteers believed that if he wore this adorable sweater, someone would see him and intervene to save his life. […] He is very heartbroken, and he also shattered our hearts, the animal protection organization wrote.

The caption on the picture pleaded with viewers to spare this boy’s life. He should be given a second opportunity to live in a caring environment with kind people. His adoption fees to a caring home will be paid for by us.

Everyone was moved to tears by Bobby’s shot, which also inspired many animal lovers to take action. People eager to save him suddenly flocked to the refuge in a hurry.

Robert Miller, a local rescue worker, was one of them. When he arrived at the shelter, the joyful news that Bobby had just found another adopter was waiting for him!

The new mother of Bobby is Paola Mariaca. She frequently volunteered at the shelter and was aware of Bobby’s situation, so she decided she needed to do more to personally assist him.

She stated on Facebook, “I took on the obligation [sic] to adopt him since even though I had been networking and sharing him, he was still at MDAS shutting down. Then he gained popularity, which attracts both good and bad individuals. He deserves only nice things going forward after waiting for so long.

Bobby was already treated for mange and an ear infection at the veterinarian by Paola. She assures him that he will live in safety and happiness with her and her other rescued pets!

I’m happy that Paola held Bobby in her arms. Bobby’s experience demonstrates just how much networking can help save shelter dogs’ lives.
