Heartbreaking photo of hugging dogs inspired adoption hours before euthanasia

 

Two dogs escaped being euthanized on Monday thanks to a Facebook post. The two dogs named Kala and Kiera shared a heartfelt hug in a picture posted on Facebook by Angels Among Us Pet Rescue.

 

The Facebook post read, “If no one saves us, someone will take her away from me. I’ll see her as she goes down the hallway,’ the emotive first-person note continued. ‘She won’t come back and I’ll cry. They’ll come for me next and I won’t be as brave.’

 

The post concluded: ‘Today is their last day unless we can save them.’

 

‘Exactly 2 hours and 6 minutes. That’s how long it took this amazing community of animals lovers to come together to save the lives of two canine friends. We just received word from our Angels volunteer that Kala and Keira are safely in the car and on their way to a vet – all thanks to you,’ the charity later wrote.

 

‘It is so easy to say, why won’t the shelter do something but they are the ones reaching out to us begging for help,’ the post continued. ‘In a perfect world they would be empty as every animal should be loved and in a home. We appreciate the shelter getting this picture to us and allowing us to share it with our followers! We can do amazing things when we all work together!’

 

They added: ‘Just look at these too. This is why we rescue.’
