The Humane Society of the United States was on a puppy mill raid when they noticed a Chihuahua named Billy. The dog had been caged so long, the door rusted shut. But wait till you see this sweet dog’s reaction.
Check out the video below, and meet Billy, rescued from a North Carolina puppy mill, and his adopter, Adam.
Bless you all at the Humane Society of the United States for all you do… helping rescue and saving these helpless and beautiful dogs from these puppy mills and abusers. You all are such wonderful people!
Prayers for each and every baby you save. Billy is precious and a lucky boy. The capacity animals have to love humans even after such terrible suffering and neglect is amazing.
Unfortunately, Billy unexpectedly passed away the following year. Adam from the Humane Society of the United States who adopted Billy made a video titled “Billy's Legacy” to report of his passing.
Life in a puppy mill wrecked his body, and in the end Billy succumbed to complications stemming from years of untreated medical conditions.
Watch “Billy's Legacy” below:
Adam definitely made Billy very happy the last few months of his life. Billy looked so lovely and Adam loved him so much. Billy passed away in very good hands, being loved and cared for… and he's in a better place now looking down at Adam in heaven smiling with gratefulness that he rescued him.
Billy's message is still alive – his spirit is alive and thriving and touching hearts still today. I'm so comforted that wonderful people like Adam and all of the folks at the Humane Society of the United States still exist in this world.
R.I.P. Billy.

I started to watch this video. I couldn’t do it. I just had to take my solace in the fa the that this baby was rescued. And I pray it will live out it’s life in a loving environment where it will never again know pain or suffering or neglect.

Awe I love my animals and always purchase from small breeders. Unless I rescue. No one who loves dogs really wants to make money off them.

BS as HSUS is a money grabbing anti animal conservation org who routinely causes the horrble death of many animals, while milking an unsuspecting public for funds. Thank heaven for local humane societies who do great work.
