A shelter dog from the Humane Society of Broward County who went viral for sadly looking at puppies get adopted finally finds her forever home.
On October 19, the animal shelter posted the heart wrenching moment Sade, a two-year-old Staffy, looks at two puppies getting picked up in the kennel next to her with a sad and longing look in her eyes.
The video had closed captions that further broke hearts and read, “Watching all the puppies get adopted… While you spend another night in the shelter… dreaming of a home.”
The video, which has garnered over 260,000 reaction on Facebook, has gone viral and has broken the hearts of many.
After Sade’s video went viral, the Humane Society of Broward County happily shared on October 22 that the sweet girl finally got her well-deserved happily ever after.
“This sweet girl, who won over the hearts of so many online, has found her forever home,” the animal shelter excitedly shared.
The animal shelter shared that Sade’s journey to a loving, forever home started with their “Reading Buddies” program, where children aged 6 to 16 can sit outside the cages of shelter animals, read to them, and feed them some treats.
During this program, Sade had two kids read to her, and that’s when she met her newest best friends and forever family rolled into one.
Along with this was the thousands of views, likes, and comments that everyone has given Sade for her videos.
The animal shelter shared that the sweet girl was able to settle in almost immediately in her new home.
“She can finally rest, knowing she’s home,” the Humane Society of Broward County wrote.
Earlier in October, the animal shelter featured Sade and shared her story in a Facebook reel. They wrote, “This dear girl was found as a stray and was just skin and bones at the time.”
The people who found her wanted to keep her, but couldn’t. “They knew they traveled too much to have a dog, so they brought her to us,” the Humane Society of Broward County shares.
The animal shelter described the two-year-old Sade as a “sweetheart”. They revealed, “She loves walks, people, attention, cuddles and being right with you.“
“Sade is good with kids and good with cats, but unknown with dogs. Please take it slow with Sade, as she is scared of raised voices.”
Sadly, the heartbreaking moment that Sade experienced is the reality for thousands of adult, shelter dogs getting overlooked for puppies.
And while Sade got her forever home, the Humane Society of Broward County still has many wonderful pets waiting for their happily ever after.
