12 cães, antes e depois da adoção, que vão fazer cair uma lágrima

Todos os cães merecem uma casa, e isso é coisa que por aqui temos repetido com insistência.

Quem tem um animal de estimação sabe bem do amor que eles nos dão, sem pedir quase nada em troca.

Por isso, e porque infelizmente, cada vez mais cães são abandonados, torna-se muito importante promover a adoção, para que cada uma destas almas tenha um “doce lar” onde possa receber amor.

De facto, a transformação dos animais quando são adotados é notória. Nesta série compilada pelo Buzzfeed, podemos ver uma lista de casos de animais que estavam em abrigos, e que foram adotados, e como é significativa a transformação que é possível ver…

E de ficar com uma lágrima ao canto do olho… Ora confere:

Penny:

Looking at Penny tonight and can’t believe that just one month ago she was a little 7 pound baby scared to go outside. #penny #adventuresofpiperandpenny #manyadventuresofpandp #piperandpenny #penelope #happydog #smileypup Photo cred to @bbehel5.0

Teddy:

We found Teddy’s shelter picture and it’s heartbreaking. We’re so glad he came into our lives and is letting his sweet, goofy personality shine! Hopefully he knows that he’ll be safe, clean, fed, and loved for the rest of his life ❤️ #beforeandafteradoption #shelterdogs #adoptdontshop #corgisofinstagram

Rosie:

Here's the day my mom picked me up and then me again a couple weeks ago… I don't like to think about before I met mom, I'm much happier and healthier now! I'll bite my last owners butt if I ever see him again ????????

Laika:

OMG???? I was scrolling through the photos on my phone and then I found the photo on the left. It's the first photo I ever took of her after we just picked her up at her previous home. I never posted it because she looks absolutely miserable????????, she was really confused and sad even though she liked and trusted us already. The photo on the right is one I took on one of the next following days. ???? Even though she can be anxious and insecure around strangers and new things, I'm glad I've never seen that sad expression on her face again after that day and I hope I never will. #beforeandafteradoption #adopt #adoptdontshop #rescuedog #rescueismyfavoritebreed #dontshopadopt #rescuedogsofinstagram #transformation #sad #heartbroken #saddog #happydog_feature #muttsofinstagram #mutt #boradorsofinstagram #laikatheborador #borador #dogsofig #dogsofinsta #sendadogphoto #postyourpooch #allcooldogs #doggiesofthe_instaworld @dogs_of_world @buzzfeedanimals @dogs.lovers @pupdoggydog #adoptiontails

Transformation Thursday? The day she was found roaming around the station and today, happy in her new home. Just look at that face. #adoptdontshop #Ember #rescuedog #DutchSheperd #beforeandafteradoption #dogsofinstagram #puppyhugs #vsco #vscocam #unnecessaryhashtags

Spokes:

Today marks one year since we officially adopted Spokes. I think his before and after says it all. Spokes came to us as a foster dog after being rescued by @countryroadsanimalrescueok from a very traumatic experience. We didn’t even think we would permanently want a dog this large but through fostering him, we had a chance to see how sweet and loving he is and we quickly became attached. I’m so glad we did! Thanks to country roads and all of the organizations and volunteers out there that give dogs like Spokes a second chance. He has added so much love and joy to our little fur family ❤️
