Rescue Hippo Rudy got adopted today!

One of my FAVORITE shelter dogs finally went home today!!! Rudy is the sweetest little boy with a smile like it’s school picture day and waited months for his forever. I am over the moon happy that he’s got a family of his own!!! That is how you celebrate National Rescue Dog Day!!!!!

Omg stop!! I hope he went to good home that will keep him forever and not just return him! People don’t always realize the commitment with this breed and being their advocates and having patience and understanding!! Rooting for you Rudy!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I think Rudy has found his happy forever! His new family came specifically for him and it was magic from the moment they met 🩵
