Rescuer Shares Emotional Adoption Story After Family Grieves Late Dog
Sometimes the love of an animal is all you need.
Saying goodbye to a beloved fur baby is one of the hardest things pet owners will ever have to do in life, but there comes a time when they feel ready to know the love of another dog. This new friend will never replace the pet who was lost, of course, but they can help heal hearts in ways one can never imagine.
That's just one reason why Lilly the Cane Corso's adoption story is so touching. Her new family was still grieving and remembering their late dog, Max, but it was their young daughter who convinced everyone that Max had sent Lilly their way for a reason. Check out this moving video from Lilly's rescuer, @nataliejosnyder.

Lilly is going to be so immensely loved. She has no idea what an important role she's already playing in her new family's life, but we know from that little girl's comment that they were all meant to find one another. It's okay--we'll give you a moment to blink away those tears.
"'She has max eyes' excuse me while I cry for 5 hours," commented @k666thlxxn. "Welcome home Lilly." Glad to know we weren't the only ones in actual tears over this story! It's so moving to know that Max's love inspired his family to rescue and adore another deserving pup.
@Fredsanford6 made us even more emotional when he wrote, "Max will finally rest knowing his babies are safe again." Oh, our hearts! As much as Max's family misses him, it is very comforting to know that they get to spend their days surrounded by even more laughter and love.
