Welcome to Thankful Thursdays - a new series at Animal Comedy where we give you a heartwarming story every Thursday to inspire some feel-good vibes to get you through the end of the week. Come for the warm and fuzzy - stay for the adorable pics.

We feel that senior dogs don't get enough love here at Animal Comedy. So we're here to introduce you to Nagão, an elderly black lab with a sad story (but with a happy ending!). Nagão was abandoned by his family during the time Sabrina Plannerer and her partner were purchasing a Shell gas station. They noticed the old dog wandering around the area, too scared to leave after being discarded by his family. Instead of forcing him to leave, Sabrina and her partner adopted him and made him am honorary employee of the gas station! He now has all the care he needs and even goes to greet the customers filling up their gas, winning them over with his charm. Reviews say he gives customer service of the highest class, smile included.

We're suckers for a heartwarming adoption story, and this one is no exception. We all could use a few more inspiring and fulfilling stories in our news feeds, especially these days. If you're looking for a good cry after this, check out this puppy's smile after being adopted. Sorry, not sorry, for making you cry this Thursday. You asked for it - let it out!

    Look at that smile and how well the employee uniform suits him! It's like he was made for this. Our only complaint is that now that he has a hat, how is he supposed to receive all the head scratches he deserves???

    This is just too stinkin' cute. We didn't know we needed to get an official lanyard for our pets until we saw this. Imagine introducing your pupper with his very own employee tag! Such a gesture shows how much Sabrina and her partner really love Nagão.

    Art - God. I don't understand how people can just drive somewhere and abandon their pets. Glad this dog got a happy ending
