Imagine suddenly being taken from your home and brought to a strange place where you sleep on a concrete floor behind bars. You hear stressed and excited barking all day and night and watch as unfamiliar people walk back and forth outside your cell.
Kind and empathetic shelter workers, like those at the Conway Area Humane Society in New Hampshire, know how terrifying this transition can be for dogs. That’s why this sweet video of animal lover Chrissy comforting pup Prissy has been viewed over 200,000 times.
Prissy was rescued from a life of neglect, chained to a concrete slab in the sweltering heat of Tennessee. Although she was brought to safety by the humane society, she was petrified of her new strange home. Following Prissy’s spay surgery (another scary experience!), shelter employee Chrissy curled up next to the pup to comfort her.
“Moments like this are a regular sight at the shelter, however, catching them on camera is rare. The staff usually run when a camera comes out! Sorry, Chrissy, I had to show it,” posted the Conway Area Humane Society on Facebook.
Watch this heartwarming video…and Chrissy’s hilarious reaction after being “caught in the act”!
Chrissy’s reaction is too funny! It’s easy to see that the folks at this rescue are true animal lovers. We hope that sweetheart Prissy will soon find her forever home, and thanks to people like Chrissy, we’re sure she will!
Thank you to all the shelter workers and volunteers who will do anything to make these deserving pups’ lives a little sweeter. You are all heroes!
