The world is filled with poor little animals who don’t have a home and are in desperate need of love and affection. But it is good to know that there are also a lot of people who are willing to give their time and energy in order to help these poor creatures. MCCAC West Adoptable Dogs is a shelter that is filled with generous and loving people who will do anything to help lonely dogs.

    Recently “MCACC West adoptable dogs” shelter posted a heartbreaking message about one lonely dog

    In their post, they shared the story of Wall-E, a 6-year-old dog, who was left behind because his owners weren’t able to take care of him.

    “This guy deserves a forever family who won’t give up on him. Please don’t bash his previous owners though. We don’t know the whole story. What we do know is the owner was heartbroken and crying. It was hard to finally help them leave. The staff was crying with the owners. We don’t believe this decision was taken lightly.”

    The shelter later explained that Wall-E’s family didn’t have enough time for him and he would spend most of the time alone in his kennel. “One of our volunteers that run this page put together the post, another volunteer had taken the picture of wall-e getting surrendered. We know it would get a lot of attention because of how sad it was but never thought it would become so huge!”, the shelter told Bored Panda.

    In order to find Wall-E a new home, the shelter had the idea to share an adorable video showing how beautiful and fun he is

    ADOPTED 11/25/18
    ❤️WALL-E❤️

    He is the sweetest lab mix !
    Good on leash
    5-6 years old
    Potty trained
    So well behaved
    Good with kids
    Scared in play group ( must have dog intro )

    Wall-e was dropped off by his owner. They said they had no time for him. They brought his bed and all his toys with him and dropped them all off with him.

    Unfortunately none of his stuff is with him now and he’s been at the shelter for months. This poor guy does not deserve this 💔💔💔

    Not long after the shelter uploaded a photo with the heartwarming comment “Wall-E Adopted!”

    Wall-E was adopted by a loving and caring family that couldn’t resist the dog’s adorable eyes. The owner Lynn Lee says she was moved by Wall-E’s story and went to the shelter right away.

    Now he is enjoying life surrounded by loving and caring people that would do anything to make him feel safe. ” Wall-e is doing great.. his new family posts videos of him almost every day on the original thread that was shared.”

    Thanks to this wonderful organization it only took one day for this adorable creature to find a home. He now enjoys cuddling and going to the park with his new loving family.

    Must absolutely be one of the hardest decisions to make - akin to giving a child up for adoption because you are unable to give it the care it needs and deserves. Too many people maybe hold onto animals because they cannot bear to part with them, but the animal suffers from isolation and imprisonment (home alone most of the day and no excercise) and sadly often neglect. Never judge someone giving up a healthy animal to a shelter for adoption and a better life than they can provide due to circumstances. Only judge those who just abandon their animals or keep them in pitiful conditions, neglected, miserable and uncared for.

    The previous family at least put the dogs needs and happiness first and did a responsible thing. That shows how much they did care for him. Good luck to Wall-E and his new humans.

    It is better to leave an animal in a shelter than dump him in a river or in a forest. As an animal lover with a lot of experience in animal help I will always respect people who has a courage to bring a pet to a shelter and give up an animal in a CIVILIZED way. Not living it in a forest, highway or dumping them over the shelter fence at night (happens too many times..) and leaving till morning with injuries that it caused...

    I’m so glad they mentioned the truth about the owners...the headline was deliberately designed to shame them...after the shelter asked them not to. And why does the woman in the video say “why did your owners do that to you?” You know why...and you know they cried and cried. They did it because it was the best thing for the dog!

    Poor sweet baby. It must be so confusing to see your person crying, know they're upset, then see them just walk away and never come back. I guess they grow to love their new home, but they would never forget their first home. Do they keep wondering, or just accept the change?

    After kidnapping my little kitty from my friend's barn where I got her, I later pictured the mom wandering around going "Wait, I had 2 of them. Where's the second one" and I felt so bad.

    The first picture is heartbreaking. a very scared, alone, frightened, ears back and confused animal with all its worldly belongings in a bag. The last pictures are great

    Just know that for every dog that gets adopted many do not and are euthanized. People! Spay or neuter your pets and think through if you are able to care for them. Don't adopt a pet if you are not absolutely 100% sure that you can provide them with a good forever home!

    Good for his previous family for at least taking the trouble to take him somewhere safe. So many times it's shove them out the door or drop them off somewhere in the country.

    Glad there is a happy ending to this story; the look on that dogs face is heartbreaking.
