‘Your dog, whoever they are, is the highlight of someone's morning.’: The emotional story of a grief stricken commuter mourning the loss of their soul dog, who finds hope and healing in the consistent sighting of a scruffy pup named popcorn

So many of the stories that we cover here have some sort of hard to swallow heartbreak attached to them. And while it is what makes them such compelling reads, sometimes, especially on the weekend, we just want a little sweet comfort and that is about it. Which is why we have brought you this tale which is just a whole bundle of sweet internet based serendipity, that is guaranteed to leave you in a better mood than before you read it.

For today, we tell the tale of a poor hooman who, having lost their soul dog had little hope in the world for their future joy. That is until they began seeing a cute canine while on their way to work. And after several sightings of the mood boosting pupper, this person took to Reddit to tell their story in the hopes of maybe connecting with this pupper's owner. And low and behold, the internet provided and the dog's owner piped up in the comments. What comes next is so wonderfully heartwarming that we do not want to spoil it and so will let you take the time to read and enjoy this truly uplifting pupper story.
