Rescue Dog Clings On To News Reporter Until He Adopts Her

Oct 18, 2020

A journalist covering a story at an animal shelter in 2019 got swept up in his own story when one of the dogs grabbed hold of him and wouldn’t let go. In a video posted to Reddit, the dog is seen standing up on her hind legs and wrapping himself around the man’s leg.

A journalist covering a story at an animal shelter got swept up in his own story when one of the dogs grabbed hold of him and wouldn’t let go.

The video was posted a year ago to Reddit showing the dog standing up on her hind legs and wrapping himself around the man’s leg, tail wagging, eyes gazing at the man longingly.

As the man pets the dog’s head, the dog leans in for more, looking up at the man lovingly. It's unknown where this animal shelter is located but it's clear that this pooch and this human are meant to be.

One Reddit user commented: "These slow and caring pets on the dog's head already tell he made a place for him in his heart," while another said, "Is this the doggy equivalent of love at first sight?"

It seemed like the pup, somewhere deep in her soul, knew that she and the reporter were meant for each other.

They had a connection that she simply couldn’t deny, and luckily, neither could he; the reporter ended up adopting the sweet dog and giving her a loving home!
