Rescue Dog Pictures Before and After Adoption That Will Restore Your Faith In Humanity

Millions of homeless animals are waiting for their forever homes, but unfortunately, there are far too many of them to fit in my tiny apartment. So to help these cuddly little cuties get adopted by loving families (meaning us), we should all take them from local shelters instead of purchasing 10,000-dollar pure breeds.

Anyway, pets deserve our love and respect just like anyone you care about since they are usually stuck with us their whole lives. Sometimes it’s a short couple of years, and other times, they’ll stay by our side for decades as loyal friends and cuddle buddies. But they are always incredibly grateful — especially the poor pups in this gallery below. Get ready to shed a few tears for the cute rescue dogs!

1. This pupperoni definitely looks happier at home than on that cold slab of concrete.

2. This dog named Bug came to the shelter straight from the street confused and frightened, but everyone instantly fell in love with her. She was able to find her forever home and a soft, warm bed.

3. Volunteers noticed this dog at one of the abandoned construction sites. A year later, she got adopted and now lives like a queen!

4. These photos are one year apart, if you can believe that. He almost got fat thanks to all that sweet love.

5. This dog was tortured by the previous owners and then thrown out in the street. But after spending eighteen months in a new house, he learned to trust people again.
