Shelter Pup Gets a New Chance At Happiness, and He Can Take His Elephant With Him

Smokey is a dog with an unfortunate bout of bad luck.

His owners had to give him up when they lost their home and he found himself alone in a shelter.

Being in such a strange and scary environment proved difficult for Smokey and he showed his fear by growling.

This contributed to his being unavailable for adoption and in a worse situation.

Thankfully, a couple of volunteers from the I Have a Dream Rescue Organization came across Smokey and set about getting him into a foster home.

There is still a chance for him to be delivered back to his family if they have the means to take him, but he has plenty of time and love in the meantime.

Smokey will join the happy company of Akida, a playful pup, and Jack Frost, a deaf dog learning sign language.

Most importantly, Smokey will be able to keep his stuffed elephant; the single tie to his former life he was left with.

Treasurer of the rescue organization that is saving Smokey, Melissa Sutherland, had the following to say:

“He was sad and laying with his elephant until she started to talk with him. It is amazing what rescue does for dogs.”
