Hey there, wholesome hoomans! We love sharing videos with happy endings, they make our hearts feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and give us hope for hoomanity's future. This video has all of the perfect pupper ingredients to tug on your heartstrings, including a deaf doggo, the loss of a friend, and the beginning of a new heartwarming friendship. The deaf doggo, "Poundcake", used to play with his best friend until they moved away, leaving Poundcake lonely and always wanting to play, but not being able to.

His dedicated doggo pawrents couldn't stand seeing him like that, so they found another deaf doggo that was having trouble getting adopted. One day, they surprised Poundcake by bringing home his new brother, "Milkshake"! The two doggos are now happy as clams, playing together and living their lives to the fullest. We can explain it with words, but it's better to just scroll down and watch it for yourselves!

    Our doggo does this too, but she mostly likes to people-watch. Or even better, if there are lots of birds nearby, she will watch them. We're not sure why they fascinate her so much, but she is pawsitively mesmerized by them!

    make.life.happen ❤ 2w **First, If you're wondering about poundcake's friend who moved, he's not far now and they do see eachother! ** If you're new to this page and are seeing this story for the first time, please know that Poundcake & Milkshake are incredible dogs, very capable, they communicate with signs, and there is NOTHING wrong with them. Often deaf, blind, senior, differently abled, and discriminated against breeds don't get adopted because of false perceptions about them.

    Adoption takes WORK and every animal has its own challenges, some require more love and patience and skill than others, so please adopt responsibly only if you're willing to put in the work and commit for their entire life. You can make miracles happen, happy endings happen, and inspire others to do the same. You might just find you're the one who was rescued.
