Power Of Love: Before And After Adoption Glowups

Hi friends. We love bringing a little extra positivity to the world in whatever way we can. That's why, we've decided to use our platform to highlight a very important issue in today's society. Animal abuse and neglect and overpopulation in our shelters! Thankfully, we can take practical measures in order to improve the situation, by volunteering, adopting a pet, and donating to our local shelters! Adoption can be the most amazing experience ever and have a huge impact on an animal's life! Every week, we highlight some of the amazing transformations that occur when a newly adopted animal is showered with love and affection.

Whenever we come across a before and after images of a neglected animal and the transformation to healthy and happy we can't help but get emotional. Do be warned though, the before picture is not always pretty, but it shows us a reality that we sometimes choose to ignore. This weekly post just fills us with happiness every time all over again, we are just so happy to see these animals getting the second chance that they deserve.

These glow ups are pawesome, and just go to show that the power of love goes a heckin long way! These animals have so much love to give and they are just waiting, often in shelters, for their hoomans. Head down to your local shelter, and allow yourself to be chosen by a local shelter resident today!
