\nThere\u2019s nothing sweeter than the moment a rescued dog knows that they\u2019re finally safe. Recently, one woman went the extra mile to get an abandoned puppy to safety \u2014 and the pup had a precious way of showing her love.\n
Kelly Williams operates Kelaroo\u2019s Ruff Ranch, a non-profit sanctuary for abused and abandoned dogs in Texas. Last week, she heard about a 6-month-old puppy who had been abandoned in the area and was surviving on her own.\n
Locals had seen the dog for weeks, but while the dog accepted food she would not let them catch her. Kelly arrived on the scene, trying to gain the dog\u2019s trust with food.\n
Time was of the essence, as the little dog was in danger out there on her own: \u201cWe knew she would have to be caught before the coyotes got to her,\u201d Kelly wrote on TikTok.\n
Not wanting to come on too strong and scare the dog off, Kelly left the food and returned later that evening to try and trap the dog. Once again they tried to lure her with food by cooking a steak, and when the dog took the bait she closed the trap, finally securing the dog.\n
After being abandoned and surviving on her own for weeks, the dog was understandably skittish, but Kelly worked to gain her trust.\n
\u201cShe was terrified after having been alone for weeks out there,\u201d she wrote. \u201cWe got her home and set her up in a quiet safe space.\u201d\n
\n
While she described the dog as \u201cdehydrated and still very scared,\u201d she slowly began to warm up to her, enjoying belly rubs and hand-fed food.\n
Then, less than 24 hours since the rescue, the puppy showed a major sign that she was finally safe and at ease. An update video shows Kelly holding the rescued puppy, who clings on to her, as if she knows she\u2019s finally home.\n
\u201cShe is hanging on so tightly which means she sees us as her safe place now and not a threat,\u201d Kelly wrote on TikTok.\n
Further updates show the dog, now named Sissy, bonding well with the rescue\u2019s other dogs and getting a check-up at the vet. Kelly says that Sissy will not be put up for adoption and will stay at the ranch for good.\n
\u201cWe are her forever home. She deserves some heaven after living in such hell,\u201d Kelly wrote.\n
That\u2019s definitely the face of a dog who knows she\u2019s finally home\u00a0\u2764\ufe0f\ud83e\udd79\u00a0Thank you to this woman for going the extra mile to rescue Sissy and give her a forever home.\n
Please share this sweet story if you love dogs!\n
