The shelter dog everyone ignores 

I adopted my beautiful boy from OC animal care. He was traumatized and scared when I brought him home, but so far, he has given me over thirteen years of love and companionship. Rescue dogs remember being saved!

To the woman who adopted this dog bless you 🤗🤗🤗

It is so heartbreaking to watch the older cats and dogs get passed by over and over. I'm so glad this adorable pup got his happy ending!!! ❤

The dog I currently own was in a no Kill shelter for almost a year until I took him out He was one of these shelter dogs everyone ignored, too big for most owners and with trauma attached (his former owner did a horrible job socializing him to both humans and people, I suspect he shocked him too because of some scars on his neck) and I would have left him there had it not been for my older dog going to him and wagging her tail near his gate. She actually picked him for me. I took him because my other dog liked him regardless of his issues when she had not played or seem that excited about all the other dogs I was interested in. I was looking to adopt a friend for her so it was fair to let her pick. Best decision of my life 2 years later hes a cuddle bug to humans, no longer mouthy or nervous anywhere, not even the busy train that I take a lot to go places with both my dogs and I've been working on introducing him to other dogs with patience and hoping he learns to be less nervous and defensive with them in the future. Hes a lot of work but easier and easier by the day and Im thankful I have him everyday. He is my other dogs best friend and they sleep together everynight even though they have about 5 beds to pick from, she loves him and I know I did the right thing for them both

I wish I was there, I'd take him in less than a second, he's absolutely beautiful ❤

Pets aren't just objects to entertain you, they are living breathing creatures who are just as deserving of love as humans.

Oh no, no animal should be ignored😢😢❤

I'm crying my eyes out after watching this video. The way Nicholas went towards the front every time someone came by then had to go back just killed me. He looked so sweet and loving. DOGS ARE SO SPECIAL!!! I tell this to people all the time " Dog spelled backwards is God!!! I feel so good that Nicholas was adopted by that kind hearted woman. She will be greatly rewarded by what Nicholas has to offer...UNCONDITIONAL LOVE!!! I'm glad I watched this because I my tear ducts needed a flushing anyway. To all the Dog people of this world thank you for sharing a part of your life with them.

I'm 30 years grown man crying like 10-year girl.... such a precious moment..❤❤❤

I’m not a dog person but this broke my heart…thank you so much to this lady for adopting him and to this man for helping him.

So glad he went home! Brought me to tears.

Thank you for staying with him , and thanks to the lady for adopting him❤!

I am about to adopt a dog tomorrow. I specifically chose her because she was abused, underweight and older girl. She had a miserable life for 8 years now she will have a pampered life for the next remaining years ❤️.

Yay! Nick!!! You adopted a human! Thank you for the rescue! 🐾♥️🐾

GOD BLESS THE LADY THAT ADOPTED HIM❣️❣️ IT WAS SO HEARTBREAKING 2 C EVERYONE OVERLOOK HIM😭💔

Hurrah for Nicholas! God bless the woman who couldn't stop thinking of him, you know what that meant? Her heart already picked him, and it was meant to be. No more people passing him buy, it's his turn now! Get him in the car and go home to a forever home! God bless you Nicholas and the wonderful woman who saved you! Love you both! Love, wendy

Awww. Bless her heart adopting this beautiful dog. 🇨🇦

Aww, his whole body wags along with his tail. 🤗 This was a simple but powerful video. Seeing the view from inside the cage really moved me.

I'm in tears and then more tears when he got adopted. I'm thrilled for him....he's a great dog and deserves his own home.

Amazing non-coincidence. Pick Nick Day was one day away & his eventual Mom comes back for him. Bless Nick, his new Mom & you folks at the shelter for not giving up. 🐾🐾

What a beautiful story! Bless you guys for keeping Nicholas safe and keeping the faith that he would find his forever home. To the lady who gave Nicholas a second chance, a home, with all the love in the world, you are an angel on this planet. 😇

Big thank you to the beautiful lady that adopted Nicholas ❤...and thank you to the shelter for taking care of him for so many years🎈

Thank you for giving Nick a chance to prove that he too is an awesome furbaby! ❤

Great to hear that Nicholas finally got a home and someone to love and care for him and free him from the shelter. Thank You for keeping on finding a home for him and God Bless You and Thank You. 💕💞🐶🐶🐕🐕💞💕

Amen… may Nicolas have a long happy and healthy life with his new mom ! 🙏❤️

That was truly heartbreaking to see Nicholas constantly being passed up by people. I was glad to see the people at the animal shelter doing everything possible for Nicholas so he could get adopted. It was truly beautiful to see this lady come and take Nicholas home! She has a caring and loving heart, by what she did for this poor dog. May she and Nicholas live long happy lives together!! God Bless and Godspeed to this woman and Nicholas, as well as those at the shelter and all who love animals!!!

Beautiful, beautiful Nicholas! How could so many people overlook this wonderful furbaby? I'm so glad Nicholas has found his forever home with his awesome, new 'Dogmother.' I wish them both a lifetime of pure happiness & love together. ❤🐶🐾❤🐶🐾❤🐶🐾❤🐶🐾❤

I’m glad the dog got adopted

Lady there is a special place in heaven for you! God bless you!!

I didn’t know I was going to cry, but here I go. What an awesome ending.❤️🙌

He comes across as such a beautiful soul too 🥺 glad his moment arrived

What a beautiful dog & a beautiful lady. Match made in heaven ❤️❤️❤️

I'm going to a local shelter next Saturday. I had to put my beautiful border collie down in January and now I'm ready for another best friend. I am looking forward to making a dog like Nick happier than they ever could imagine. I know that dog will do the same for me.

He is so beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Nicholas is such a sweetheart. So glad he finally found his lady.❤❤❤❤

He's gorgeous, a big soppy playful boy. I'm so glad that someone was able to offer him a safe, loving home 🐾🐾💜❤ xx

😭😃💗 what a sweet boy, wonderful caregivers at the shelter and the adopter!

Oh my Goodness!! This made me cry!! Thank you so much for taking him home!! I feel RELIEVED FOR HIM!! GOD BLESS HIM AND HIS NEW MOMMY!!😇😇😇🥰🥰🥰

This brought an instant tear that I wasn’t expecting….the happy feeling of being loved and wanted…….I think right now we all need a bit more love- so happy for him🎉

Thx so much we cried and were amazed at your wonderful rescue centre and the effort you put into him we applause you and pray for your organisation

You never gave up - thank you!

How could anyone not fall in live with this beautiful sweet dog? He is absolutely gorgeous. Glad someone took him to his for ever home.❤❤🎉🎉

💔 My heart is inconsolable at the thought of the many, many innocent shelter animals who wait in hope for what must seem like forever for a selfless heart who will love them enough to take them home. Gorgeous Nicholas represents ALL of the dear Shelter angels who, altho they are SO worthy, continue to be overlooked... who, thru no fault of their own, are sadly forced to face endless loneliness & heartbreak in a cold, hard, eternal shelter cage. They don't deserve that. NO animal deserves that. Oh dear merciful Lord God, I pray You will PLEASE... send an army of loving hearts to rescue each & every innocent Shelter angel. And until such time as each one of our dear shelter angels is found by a loving forever family who will rescue them & take them home, I most humbly pray... May they ALL be safe & healthy. May they ALL have full bellies & a soft, safe, warm place to lay their sweet heads. May they ALL have days when they get to run & play with friends. May they ALL know warm cuddles & feel the gentle touch of love & affection. And above all else... please, help us to find a way to show them ALL, so that each one of them will ALWAYS KNOW they ARE SO loved. THEY ARE ALL so very... VERY loved. 💕🙏💕

I'm not crying, you are crying. I love my spoiled rescues.

Any dog adopted and saved brings a blessing from God, or the power of universe . Any animal helped and saved show the humans win against evil and satan.

Brings tears to my eyes,bless this beautiful lady for giving such a gorgeous boy a home,🙏💗💙

God's blessings and thanks to this woman and the staff of this shelter for opening your hearts to this wonderful and beautiful soul of a dog. Have a great life Nick, you deserve it!💞🐾😊

I rescued a dog stuck in a shelter for 4 months. Same kind of situation. The dog has worked out very well.

My heart is full for Nicholas. Easy really to see how wonderful he is. The right person just had to appear for him.

God Bless that Lady and Nicolas ! He deserved a good home like his heart !

God Bless you and these precious lives and I’m so overjoyed that Nick has a forever home and will never be ignored.

What a sweet face! Good luck Nicholas in your forever home. You deserve a loving home. ♥️

I love stories like this. So glad he found a home. ❤

Grats Nick!!! and thank you for helping him!! ❤❤❤

The view that an unwanted dog has ie of people coming & going, really broke my heart. Nicholas is a truly beautiful dog & I’m so glad this sweet boy finally got to “go home.” 💕 PS Those shelter people, who never gave up of him, are Earth angels!

Lady was a blessing.. She just knew a good dog when she saw it.

He is so beautiful!! Thank you to the lovely woman who adopted him, and to the shelter for looking after him and persevering yaaay!!!

What a tear jerking story. Such a beautiful dog. Thanks to the young lady who finally det him free. Thank you for posting. Made my day. ❤

It's awesome that they found each other. I'm sure that they will give each other all the happiness and love in the world. Thank you to her for being such a wonderful person.

I'm so glad as that was heartbreaking watching all those people walk by as he wagged his tail.. I love a happy ending and that beautiful dog deserved it

❤❤❤

Oh thank God he's got a home. Breaks my heart.

Seja feliz, querido Nicholas! Deus te abençoe e a sua nova família❤

Tears of sadness turned into tears of joy.... 🌈🏡

Yay! So happy Nicholas finally got to go to his forever home! 💖 If you have the time and ability to volunteer to walk dogs at your local shelter, to get them out of their kennels for a bit and just give them some love, it will help them through the tough times until they find their forever homes--and you will get so much love back in return. 🐾❤️

Congratulations to Nicholas and his new family! Thanks to all of the shelter staff who socialized him and cared about Nicholas! He's a lucky dog now! ❤️🍀🐶❤️

congraulations nick, you deserve a loving warming home. im so glad and happy this lady adoped him gives me tears into my eyes. thank you young lady

I walked into our local animal shelter 16 yrs ago. after getting acquainted with the canines I noticed this dog being ignored too. I went into his room and sat on the floor beside him, allowing him to smell me, accept me. And he did! I immediately yelled to my bf that this one coming home!!! ❤ we gave him his best life, he sadly passed away from natural old age that tore us up inside. We were left incomplete, it hurt tremendously losing him. We quickly paid a breeder as this was during covid pet stores, animal shelters were all closed. I was so desperate to love another fur baby again. I got the exact same dog as my old boy. The weird thing is my new dog adopted my last dogs name. lol BooBoo #1 #Booboo #2 ❤🐾🐾

Bless you lady for giving this pooch a loving home! ❤️🇨🇦

🎉🎉 amazing!!! Love that he found his forever home!!

Thank you for this. I'm so happy for Nicholas. He's found a loving home.

Gave me the feels on this one. Bless you all!

Saint Nicholas can teach a lot of people a good lesson that beautiful and wonderful things can happen to those who are patient. He was just having to wait for an earth angel to find him. I hope he will have a blessed and happy life.

Vocês são únicos! É fantástico vêr a transformação estampada no focinho desse querido, que bom que bom que é!😊

A great story as well as beautifully narrated, photographed and videotaped Nick is a survivor. Thanks

This makes me cry bc animals deserve so much better than we give them in life… they are humble, beautiful and loving no matter what.. they see everything, hear everything and still just want love… so blessed to see this beautiful dog get a forever home!!!! ❤❤❤

Gracias,😮 Gracias a la Señora q.lo.adopto😢El Señor 👆🙏 te bendiga siempre y te PROVEA de Grandes Bendiciones 🙏 para Cuidar de Nicolás.Dios te bendiga 🙏🌸💯

My current dobe/mix was in a shelter for over a year in Tennessee - no-one ever showed an ounce of interest in him. And I'm kind of glad they didn't...because as soon as he came to my state...I picked him up as soon as he got off the shuttle bus. And in that time he has proven himself to be one of the best dogs I've ever had!

Safest thing I ever seen and now I'll only think of this all day and night 😢so sad so hard to watch

Excellent video… “adopt with a lot of love and patience”. Great narration and production. ❤

This reminds me of my girl. I walked dogs at our county shelter & Gwen would sit in the back of her kennel, not out of fear. More just because she's always been so very "chill", so she was overlooked. Well, after 5 months, I adopted her. She was perfect. Really perfect. She loved my 2 cats. I was hesitant to adopting as I was going through cancer treatment, but she became my emotional support. She'd lay next to me when I napped & put a paw on my hand. She's about 13 now so I know time is limited, but she's as sweet as ever!!!

Thank you to this wonderful woman. If this shelter's longest resident is 100 days, then this is an amazing shelter. Thank you for the work you do!

We adopted a wonderful dog who had spent the first 6 years of her life in a rescue. She was part chow, all black very protective and intimidating, one day an old acquaintance came to visit, the dog was very uneasy, emitting low growls and sitting directly in front of me. Knowing this individuals history I excused myself went out the back door, caught his brother stealing tools from the shed. That wasn’t the only time she warned us about people and was always correct. We were fortunate to have her 7 years.

Jesus Christ died for our Sins According to the scriptures and that he was Buried and that he rose again the third day praying for everyone everyday God bless you all 🙏

This story is amazing! Made me cry! Finally ♥️So happy for this precious fuzzy child! 😊🐾

The smile on his face when he was sat in the car ,going to his new home, was magic !!🤩🙂

Wonderful story. God Bless you and your family

Beautiful Nicholas I am so happy he got a home
