When the shelter dog realizes who is standing in front of him, the tears start to flow

A lonely dog

Once at the shelter, Roscoe, who was named by shelter staff, seemed to prefer to be alone. It was obvious that he didn’t trust humans and, unlike many dogs that came to the shelter, he had trouble bonding with the staff.

But the shelter didn’t want to give up on Roscoe and decided to see if they could find out more about him and what led him to end up on the streets. The volunteers posted a message on their Facebook page to find out a little more about his story, in case anyone knows him. 

A nice reunion

The shelter was put in touch with a man who had lost his dog three years earlier from his family farm. Even if he hoped to find his dog one day, the man had little hope and even less that the dog found by the shelter would really be his, so far from his home. But when in doubt, he decided to go and see on the spot. 

But once faced with the doggie, the man no longer had any doubts: it was indeed Runt, his dog lost three years ago. 

At first suspicious, the pooch quickly understood who this man was, and his fear turned into absolute joy. In a few moments, this once reclusive and anxious dog has become a veritable ball of love and joy. 

Runt is now back home with his family and has never been happier.
