Couple Buys A House And Discovers A Dog Tied To A Tree In Their Backyard
Molly, a 10-year-old pit bull, experienced the harsh reality of abandonment when her first family left her tied to a tree in the backyard of their old home.
Her story, however, took a happy turn with the arrival of the new homeowners, April Parker and her husband, who immediately embraced her with open arms and a promise of a loving forever home.
A Heartbreaking Discovery
When April Parker and her husband purchased their new home, they were unaware that they would soon become pet owners in a most unexpected way.
The previous owners had left behind not only the property but also their two pets, Molly and a cat, with Molly sadly chained to a tree.
“They just didn’t want her,” April Parker said in a TikTok. “They wanted their bee hive and tractor but not her or the cat.”
