Further evidence that dogs are among the world’s most devoted animals came from a touching photo of a dog waiting for his owner next to an empty hospital bed. The terrible event was captured in a photo that rapidly became popular on social media.

Moose, a three-year-old Labrador mix, was about to be put down because the shelter was full and no one wanted to adopt him. Fortunately, Moose was adopted from Randolph, New Jersey’s Eleventh Hour Rescue and now has a new home.

The bereaved dog had at last found a home, but his father died of cancer a year later. But Moose didn’t know that his father had died; all he knew was that he had to wait. Despite the fact that he is certain that his dear human would never return, he maintains his faith in a miracle.

Eleventh Hour Rescue volunteers, who were inconsolable, moved immediately to get Moose into their refuge. Everyone at the shelter cared deeply about Moose, and they exerted every effort to find him a home as soon as possible.

The policy of Eleventh Hour Rescue, according to Linda Barish, a member of the executive committee, is “that we take the dogs back despite when the owner passes away.” We never in a million years imagined that this would occur.

Moose’s story and picture were posted online by NorthStar Pet Rescue and Eleventh Hour Rescue in an effort to find him a local foster or adoptive family. In response to the image, thousands of comments have been posted online.

According to a Facebook post by Eleventh Hour Rescue, “Moose stayed calmly next to his dad’s hospital bed, waiting for him to come back, unaware that “Dad” had died away.”

They received countless applications to be Moose’s parents when the picture gained popularity online. Eleventh Hour Rescue reported that Moose has been adopted by his new, forever family three days later.

Moose has found his forever home because to the impact of social media. Learn more about what happened to Moose by watching the video below.

The endearing picture of Moose demonstrates that dogs have feelings, and they might even be more compassionate than humans. Please let your family and friends know about this horrible incident!
