Power Of Love: 35 Photos Of Doggos Before And After Adoption (July 1, 2022)
Hi, friends! It's Friday, and you guys know what that means… it's time for our weekly Power of Love segment (doggo edition). Every week, we search for the top stories and photos of doggos before and after they were adopted into their forever homes. All rescue stories are great, but we especially love making this segment because of the visual aspects that go into it. With this segment, our goal is to show people that adopting doesn't have to be scary.
Yes, shelter doggos have a lot of trauma from their previous experiences. But they shouldn't be overlooked just because they're not cookie-cutter-perfect. In our opinion, in comparison to dogs from breeders, adopted doggos have more love to give because of everything they've been through. Every cuddle, every hug, and kiss will be that much more appreciated. Don't believe us? Just have a look for yourself! What beholds are 35 before and after photos illuminating just how far a little bit of love can go.
