This Dog Rescued From Euthanasia Can’t Stop Showing His Joy

This story is about Gregory, a beagle whose life was saved just in time by a compassionate rescuer.

Gregory was on the brink of being euthanized due to his medical condition when a kindhearted man stepped in to give him a second chance.

Saved From The Brink

Many pets face euthanasia when their medical needs become too costly for their owners, and Gregory was one of them.

He was just two days away from his scheduled euthanization when Joe Kirk, a dedicated animal rescuer, came to his aid.

Reflecting on their work, Schenley shared: “We are often asked how many dogs we have saved. The answer that always comes to mind is, we have saved one more. One more dog is safe and will have all of the love and respect that they are so deserving of.”

Gregory’s story reminds us how far a little kindness can go. Because of the Kirks’ dedication, one more dog found safety, love, and a new lease on life.
