It's amazing, how big of a difference a little love can make. Stories like these - of people going out of their way to rescue dogs that were abandoned… they remind us of the good that there is in the world. And we need that, especially now, we need the reminder that there are kind people out there, that there really are selfless people who just want to do some good and help some helpless puppers. 

It's time to restore everyone's faith in humanity, and we think this adorable dog rescue story is the best way to start. If you are not smiling by the end of this one… we don't know that anything could make you smile. Because this dog's transformation before and after his rescue is one of the biggest and most amazing that we have ever seen. And we hope that his story inspires countless more people to do the same.

    The transformation that this pupper has made is one of the most amazing that we have seen. And we have seen a lot of dog rescues and have covered a lot of rescue stories. The thing that makes this one so special is the fact that you can see how happy the doggo is.

    The transformation is in his eyes and attitude. Seeing him here, so defeated, would make you think that he will never smile and run and wiggle his tail again. But he does. And he is. And all it took was some kindness from humanity to make it happen.

    Niall Harbison @NiallHarbison Subscribe Mr big had maggots in a wound in his ear. He was covered in about 500 blood sucking ticks. He was massively anemic, had tick fever and hadn't much time left. He was being eaten alive. We thought he'd lose an ear (2/10) 3:41 PM · Jul 28, 2024 1.9M Views 51 518 17K 195 ↑

    Niall Harbison @NiallHarbison Subscribe The biggest challenge was his stamina as he has been so weak. But he started walking and then in the last few weeks I've got him back running. The best news is we even managed to save his ear. Mr Big was getting healthy again (4/10) 0:01/0:11 * U K

    Niall Harbison @NiallHarbison Subscribe Because of his breed Mr Big cannot fly. It would have to be a home in Thailand But it's not easy to re-home a bigger dog like this with recent health issues. Then this week he hit the jackpot. A lovely American man and his Thai wife wanted to see him. They came today (6/10)

    Niall Harbison @NiallHarbison Subscribe His new owners bought him this bed and went to their hotel. I was throwing all the beds into the suites as it was hammering down rain. When I came back 20 minutes later Mr Big was asleep under it. He'd had the best day ever and felt safe (8/10) 0:10/0:22 ✡yk 3:43 PM -Jul 28, 2024 - 1.6M Views
