Zuzu, a two-year-old German Shepherd mix, went viral in November 2016 for her sad story that broke hearts across the country.
After her dad died, she became extremely depressed, moping around and crying all the time. Her owners didn’t like the way she had been acting, so she wound up at a shelter.
One day, Zuzu began jumping around in excitement when she noticed her previous owner there. Shelter staff assumed they were there to take Zuzu back home, but much to their surprise, they were actually there to adopt a different dog.
When the story went viral, the shelter was flooded with inquiries about her. That’s when Russ and Judith Gallo saw a video of Zuzu and fell in love. Their dog had recently passed away, leaving their other pup, Dodger, very lonely and heartbroken. They wanted to adopt another dog to cheer Dodger up, and they knew Zuzu was just the one!
Zuzu is doing great in her new home and has become the best of friends with Dodger. Watch her in her new life in the video below:
We believe in treating them with utmost respect. Please SHARE if you do, too.

I have my furbabies until the very end. I sure would not allow them another animal for a long while.

In glad this dog has a home but it bothers me that the shelter let them take another one!!! Obviosly they aren’t fit!!!! Why? They should be put on a list to never be able to adopt again!!!!

Awww how cruel can that family be. They gave her up because she was mourning her dad and then went to get another dog in front of this sweet baby. They don’t deserve a pet! Disgraceful behaviour.

Hope the shelter didn’t let them get another dog. What is wrong with people. Thank you for saving her. She’s wonderful.

Why would the shelter let them adopt another pet when they made it clear they don’t care enough?
