Husky And Owner Reunited In Ukraine After Getting Separated By Russian Attacks
A husky named Nessie turned a war-torn street in Bucha, Ukraine, into a reunion scene nobody expected. After weeks apart, she spotted her owner again and ran straight toward him, tail wagging and energy bursting through the chaos.
The pair had been separated during the Russian attacks that hit the area, leaving Nessie wandering alone until soldiers from the Kastus Kalinouski Battalion found her. They kept her safe and later helped bring her back to the person she had been missing.
In a place marked by loss, this small moment of joy stood out. Read on.
This beautiful husky has been wandering the streets alone for weeks before she was found and reunited with her owner
The heartwarming and emotional video showed the moment this beautiful pup reunited with her owner after the pair got separated by the escalating violence in Bucha, Ukraine. The husky, called Nessie, was seen running down the street, gaining speed when she spotted a familiar face.
The war has separated many families from their beloved pets, but this husky was lucky to be reunited with hers
After weeks apart, Nessie and her owner are reunited
The dog was obviously so happy to see her owner again. She couldn't contain her excitement as she jumped up and licked her owner, her tail wagging back and forth uncontrollably.
The pup then proceeded to run around him while crying out, as if rushing to tell her human everything that had happened. The man, on the other hand, also couldn't stop smiling as he continued to pet the pup, who kept coming back into his arms.
She looked like she was so excited to tell him everything
The pup was found by the Kastus Kalinouski Battalion, a group of Belarussian soldiers volunteering in Ukraine
The Kastus Kalinouski Battalion helped fight Russian forces in Bucha, and after winning the month-long fight and taking the town back, they found Nessie wandering the streets alone and couldn't leave her behind. As it seems, the pup had been separated from her owner a few weeks ago amid the attacks from Russian forces.
The soldiers then took the dog in and kept her safe until they found her owner.
Along with the video of the reunion, the group posted the caption, “A little positive in these difficult times. During Bucha’s release, we found Nessie, the dog that was left alone. But thanks to our friends, we found her owners, and today she returned to them.” They ended their statement by saying that they fight for all lives out there, including that of each and every animal.
The group couldn't just leave the dog there among the carnage
This moment of wholesomeness is a beacon of hope for many
It is a happy moment; however, it's also difficult to imagine what both the owner and the pet have gone through, with the owner scared and worried for their dog and the dog alone, wandering the streets and experiencing what is probably the most stressful event of their life.
It’s the same kind of happy ending as an elderly dog finding joy reuniting with a beloved owner.
It may be a difficult road ahead, but this image shows that there is still a big hope for a better future
Considering the harrowing sights in Bucha, one thing is certain - innocent people are suffering the most at the hands of war
What Ukrainian soldiers found after the Russians occupied and fled Bucha are nothing but images of horror, where neither mercy nor humanity seems to have been shown. Ukrainian officials claim to have found the bodies of at least 410 civilians in Bucha and other nearby towns where Russian forces have retreated.
Russians have also been accused of various war crimes, including murder, torture, and rape; however, of course, the Kremlin has denied all accusations.
The remains of a destroyed tank remind the world that Ukraine is engulfed in a world of suffering, loss, and death
CNN reported that a Russian torture chamber was uncovered inside a children's hospital that was also used as barracks for the soldiers. There, the bodies of five men were found shot in the basement, with their hands tied behind their backs and showing signs of prior torture.
Claims like these are difficult to fathom; however, they're not surprising either.
These ruins are what many Ukrainians have been familiar with in the past few months
In war, there is no such thing as "no reason." As Stefan Vetter said, “With the cognitive shift, we believe that the real problem began with an act of will on the side of the enemy, and it can be solved only by breaking his will or by making him helpless. What better way to let him feel this than by using torture?”
This can be applied to either side, each finding reasons to use torture on people and animals who aren't able to fight back.
One family got reunited, but how many are going to have the same luck?
Right now, there are over 4.5 million people who have fled their home country and become refugees in search of safety. We can only imagine the physical and emotional struggles that these people have gone through.
We hope the best for Nessie and her family, and all those who have fled or remained in Ukraine
We are incredibly happy that Nessie and her owners got their very own moment of joy amidst this war. We hope that they are able to find safety together and live out their lives with many more happy memories together.

Everyone is glad they found each other again
Hopefully, she'll be safe now
A silver lining
How can it not?
We're really glad Nessie and her family found each other again, and we hope this same thing happens to other families out there who were separated from their furry friends. This war has taken enough from them already, and we hope they can rebuild their families again in peace soon.
Want another tearjerker, watch how an old dog reunites with his hooman after over a month lost.
