This Sweet Senior Dog Shook In Fear Until Something Incredible Happened

Senior dogs often face the toughest odds in the rescue world.

Many potential adopters tend to pass them by, making it harder for these loyal, loving animals to find homes, but every once in a while, one senior dog gets the chance to prove just how much love they have left to give.

 

Bruno Was Terrified

When Shira saw a video of Bruno, an elderly dog trembling uncontrollably, she knew she had to help him.

I could just tell he wanted to be this sweet old man, but he was just too scared,” Shira said to The Dodo.

 

She took Bruno into her car and gently cuddled him, trying to ease his fears.

After about ten minutes, the shaking stopped, and for the first time, Bruno seemed calm and relaxed, finally realizing he was safe and cared for.

After arriving at a safe location, Shira gave him a soothing bath, cleaning the sticky fur that had built up over time. His mood shifted so much after the bath that he curled up and fell into a deep, peaceful sleep.

 

He just passed out, and it’s probably the first peaceful sleep he’s had in God knows how long,” Shira shared.

 

Bruno’s Loving Foster Mom

The very next day, Shira found Bruno a foster mom named Chekechea, who had heard about his story and immediately wanted to help.

Bruno had endured so much trauma, but now, he was finally in a place where he could begin to heal and enjoy life again.

To help Bruno feel even more comfortable, Chekechea would sing to him every night before bed, which soothed him and helped him fall asleep. Once he got used to being in his new foster home, Bruno’s true personality started to shine through.

 

He’s really like a little grumpy old man,” Chekechea said with a smile.

 

Though he loved being around people, Bruno also appreciated his alone time.

Chekechea adored Bruno, but because of her busy schedule, she knew he needed someone who could give him more time and attention.

 

Bruno Finds His Forever Home

Soon, a potential adopter named Armen came to meet Bruno, and the connection between them was instant.

Bruno relaxed immediately when he met his future dad, and it was clear to Armen that adopting him was the right choice.

Bruno went to his forever home, where he could finally start his new life full of love and care.

A few weeks later, Shira visited Armen and Bruno to see how they were doing. It was heartwarming to see how happy Bruno was in his new home, fully enjoying life with his new family.

This sweet senior dog, once shaking with fear, had finally found a place where he felt safe and loved, and everyone was overjoyed that Bruno had overcome his past and found a forever home.
