Watching videos of dogs that have been rescued from the dangers of the street can be heartbreaking. Sometimes, you may find yourself asking why humans abandon their furry friends. Nevertheless, some dogs have lady luck on their side.
One husky has become viral because of a video that showed how his owner abandoned him. The pup tried to chase after his owner, but the human just drove off. Despite that, he was able to find a new family on the same day!
The husky deserves a loving family!
A woman named Joy Dominguez was present at the scene where the husky was abandoned. She decided to take a video of the unfortunate incident and send it to news outlets.
In the clip, a young man could be seen on the side of the road with his dog. He then took off the husky’s collar and leash.
The husky, probably excited about being outdoors, explored the side of the road. While he was doing that, his owner quickly went back to his car and drove off. The husky thought that he was forgotten, so he ran after the car.
Sadly, the vehicle didn’t slow down at all.
A new beginning for the pup
The clip became viral right after it was posted. The husky was then taken to a vet, and it was determined that he was in good health. Eventually, an animal rescue center took custody of him and put him up for adoption. And in less than 24 hours, he found a new family.
The Clapsaddles had fallen in love with the husky after they saw what he had been through. They gave him the name Ninook, which was actually the name of a dog in the 1987 film The Lost Boys.
These days, Ninook is enjoying life. The Clapsaddle kids love giving the husky some belly rubs. The family is also working on training him.
Meanwhile, the authorities are looking for the guy who abandoned Ninook.
