A shelter dog’s simple plea changed his fate
Lancer spent over 200 days in a Mobile animal shelter, ignored by everyone—until he started reaching his paw through the kennel bars, quietly asking for someone to hold it. That small, heartbreaking gesture caught the eye of a volunteer, who shared his story online. Suddenly, thousands saw Lancer’s silent plea, and within a day, he found a loving home. It’s wild how one photo and a little hope can turn a life around. Have you ever seen a pet’s personality shine through in a moment like this? Let’s talk about the power of connection and second chances. #Pets #AdoptDontShop #RescueDog

my dog was named Scott when i saw him in the pound. my brother, Scott, had just passed away, and he felt special. i didn't realize it right away until he stood up to lick me & flopped over on his other side, that they had just amputated Scott's little leg 4 days prior. in fact, he still had the staples in. well, the hair stood up on my neck bc my brother, Scott, who passed away, was a double amputee & had loved/owned all sorts of animals. he went home with me that day & is the happiest, SMARTEST dog ever! we have such a bond!!! 🐾 🐾

No dog should have to beg for his/her life. Breeding should be illegal until the pet population is under control. Puppy mills need to be criminalized, especially in Amish communities. They are the worst. They hide behind their culture and the Bible and cause much of this problem.

You all can help!!!! People we NEED to be their voice! Please write, email, or call your local representatives! Be their voice they need and DESERVE love! NO breeding and federal/ state funding for spay and neuter! Together, we can be heard! HARSH punishment for abuse and neglect!!! No killing them! Landlords NEED to allow pets!Don't just like my comment. PLEASE look it up. It didn't take long to do this!

I just listened to an old sermon by Billy Graham that used scripture proving animals go to heaven. He said their souls are not like ours but they WILL all be in heaven. Even Jesus rides a white horse.

Human beings are a sickening species, most of them don't care about others much less a poor animal. Most just care about Money. Animal abuse and pet mills need to be stopped by much more severe punishment.

It should be a privilege to have a pet..Stricter neuter and spay would fo so much good
It would lessen the loss in shelters. These beautiful animals are put into a prison just for being born
Way to go Lancer hope you now have the life you should have had from day one.🙏
If you have a dog or cat please spay or neuter them.
