Couple Constructs A Dog Train To Carry All Their Rescue Doggos On The Most Adorable Adventurous Spree
Every Friday evening in Lehigh Acres, Florida, a very unusual parade rolls by, and the neighbors know exactly what it means. Alice Johnston and her partner, Paul, built a dog train for the rescue dogs they brought with them after years of running an animal shelter in Costa Rica.
The couple arrived in Florida with more than a dozen rescued dogs, then came up with a clever way to take them all out together. Since they could not walk every dog at once or fit them all in a vehicle, they created the Wonderland Express, a homemade train pulled by a lawnmower.
Now the pack gets its weekly ride, and the whole neighborhood seems to stop and watch. Read on.
The happy pack is an incredible sight.
The couple drew inspiration for the Wonderland Express, as it is called, from a Texas man who built a dog train for his own rescued dogs. Furthermore, the Johnstons' dogs absolutely love their train rides.
Happy times
Johnston testified that their dogs get so excited about going on train rides, and they truly enjoy it. They know when Friday arrives better than we do, and it's astonishing how they know.
But then again, it’s not only the dogs that are excited about their weekly trips.
The whole neighborhood seems to be waiting for the next ride.
Here's the video below
Alice mentions that there are individuals who wait patiently for them to pass by on the street. She even adds that some people come out to give treats to the dogs, which they thoroughly enjoy.
It’s like the day the couple adopted their rescue dog, when tears flowed during the first meeting.
Hello, you!
You will agree with me that the Johnstons definitely stand out, and they put all the attention the train receives to excellent use. Alice says that her husband has signs all over the train that encourage people to adopt and not shop.
Let's all go for a ride...
She also added that there are numerous homeless animals, and they make great pets. Anything they can do to encourage people to give these dogs a chance, the Johnstons are more than happy to do.
The Johnstons' aim is not to publicize their Wonderland Express dog train, but they are pleased that people always want to see it.
For them, everything revolves around their dogs' happiness and spreading the message about the joy that comes with adoption. It brings the Johnstons great joy to know that dogs are getting another opportunity to have a home of their own.
Furthermore, it truly gives them and us fulfillment to know that these homeless dogs are given a new life.
What a sweet way to turn rescue work into a neighborhood event.
