Woman Gets Reunited With Abandoned Pup After Facing a Homeless Life

Being homeless is a scary reality countless people face. Nowadays, it’s getting harder and harder to pay bills, put food on the table, provide for the family, and live in general. Many people have no choice but to leave everything behind and take their chances on the streets. Sometimes that means leaving behind something you love, as a woman recently had to do, unfortunately.

A Really Sad Story

A woman from Chattanooga, Tennessee, felt desperate enough to leave her puppy, Lilo, out on the streets because life had gotten too expensive, and she was facing a homeless life. The mom of two was heartbroken having to make the decision, but she was thinking of the dog’s best interest. She wanted the pup to have the best possible home, and she knew she couldn’t offer that, so she left her behind.

Homeless Lilo Gets Rescued

Fortunately for Lilo, a good samaritan found her and kindly took her to the McKamey Animal Center. There, they took care of the dog and discovered a heartfelt note her owner had left on her collar. It urged someone to take in the dog and love her as her mom could no longer do so due to expenses and having to live on the street with her children.

A Sweet Reunion for Dog and Owner

After the shelter posted the note on its Facebook account, they were left to wait. They cared for the dog and made sure she was healthy and fed until someone came to claim her. They also promised the owner they would do whatever they could to assist. The woman finally came in and was reunited with her best friend! She got help from the shelter and could keep her dog by her side!

After reuniting the woman and her beloved dog, Lilo, they updated their Facebook post to urge people to seek help when in these situations from their local animal shelters.
