Husky Abandoned on Roadside Gets Adopted by Loving Family

It’s a heartbreaking scene: a teenager is on the side of the road, taking the collar off his pet husky, who sits calmly. Then, the boy gets in the car and it pulls away. The dog gives chase, perhaps thinking it’s a game. The video ended up on the Facebook page of an animal rescue group in El Paso, Texas. When Catherine Clapsaddle, a mother of two, saw the video, she instantly made a call to adopt the dog. She surprised her kids with the husky, which they named Ninook.

If he didn’t want the dog, he should have at least dropped it at a proper shelter rather than abandoning him

Leaving a husky to fend for itself in this Texas heat is unforgivable.

Who could abandon family? That husky is clearly family.

[invertedpizza]

The fact that people do that instead of bringing them to a shelter.

I like how they didn’t cover his license plate

This is the definition of humanity, I'm happy you adopted Husky.

I'm so glad they found this person and charged them. Even better, the husky is in a better home. Please, if you want a pet, don't get one on impulse. Research a pet and, in my opinion, don't buy a pet rescue a pet. Be safe and well everyone 💜👋.

The way that little girl hugs the husky is truly a rewarding happy ending to this story. Says a lot of how the husky feels about his new family. 🙂🙏

Whats so sad is the dog running after the car. Even after they left him. Dogs have more loyalty than humans.

This poor baby, glad he’s with a family that’s gonna actually love him

I literally almost cried from the way he was chasing the car. Good Samaritans at the right place at the right time.

something feels weird about this... how would the family thats abandoning the dog not be concerned that a car pulled over RIGHT BEHIND it on an empty highway?

I’m disgusted. Thank god he now has a safe home.

[PaiviProject]

Shame on those people !! They should never have another pet ever again !! He seems such a sweet dog and hopefully has the happily ever after with the new family.

Seeing him run after the car is soul crushing. I’m glad he was adopted by a loving family.

The poor husky was only 10 months old! The owner didn't have him for a year, and decided to abandon him. He could've at least sent the husky to a dog shelter...glad the husky's in a better home now ❤️❤️

[koffinkat]

They weren't charged? EVERYONE involved in abandoning Doggo should be charged!

[VergilTheLegendaryDarkSlayer]

Poor dog, at least he found his forever home

[nothingfollows]

Wow. I cant even leave without saying "I'll be back, buddy. I promise." to my dog.

When the dog was running after the car I literally was speechless. That poor dog deserved so much better than to be treated like garbage. Like if you think that poor dog should be given a lifetime box of treats!!!😘🐺
