However, adopters frequently overlook senior shelter dogs despite the fact that they still require affection. For the latter years of their existence, every dog deserves a devoted home.
One senior dog is currently living out her days in style thanks to two friends who have taken her in as a foster and are committed to giving the dog the best possible final few weeks.
The two roommates posted updates about Annie’s adventures on social media and made a commitment to make the dog’s time left on earth as memorable as they could by creating a “bucket list” of exciting things Annie could undertake.
The fosters posted a caption on Instagram that read, “Annie is about to enjoy the finest month of her 19 years.” She will have the opportunity to experience love, receive royal treatment, and have a lot of cuddles, ice cream, and hamburgers. She won’t be left alone at a shelter when her time comes and she lets us know she’s finished.
Annie was only given a few weeks to live, yet months later, she’s still going strong and having a blast.
With the help of her two foster children and the worldwide support that her tale has received, Annie has received a lot of love.
According to Lauren who spoke to 9News, some of her Instagram videos have gotten almost 4.2 million views. To accommodate her fan mail, “We had to obtain a P.O. box.”
Everyone was surprised that Annie wouldn’t survive as long as she has; perhaps she is just too enjoying herself to give up just yet.
While Annie continues to have the time of her life, the foster parents are aware that her time will come sooner rather than later.
A sweet tale, indeed. We are grateful that Annie has these two wonderful buddies to make her final days so memorable because all dogs deserve a loving home to live out their lives in.
Spread the word about this wonderful tale!
