Dog Listed In "Death Row" At The Shelter Is Beyond Ecstatic When He Realizes He's Being Adopted Instead Of Euthanized
A young shelter dog named Benny was running out of time in California, and his story took a turn that no one at the shelter could have predicted. At just 8 months old, the pit bull-labrador mix had landed on Carson Shelter's "Death Row" list, which meant euthanasia was looming if no one stepped in.
That changed when Dogs Naturally Magazine and its volunteer network helped push Benny's face in front of the public. Their videos are meant to give dogs like him a last shot at adoption, and in Benny's case, that effort worked fast.
Instead of a final walk, Benny got a freedom walk, and his reaction says everything about what adoption can mean.
