Long-term canine resident of Great Plains SPCA, Queen, has finally found a forever home after local animal advocate Scott Poore moved in with her on September 17 to highlight the friendly dog’s plight.
Poore had been regularly visiting the three-year-old terrier mix — who had been at the Kansas animal shelter for over 400 days — and witnessed her start to exhibit signs of depression and loneliness. So, he made the amazing decision to move out of his own home to share Queen’s 8-by-5 foot room.
Poore was determined to remain at Great Plains SPCA until Queen found the perfect home, and after just one week, someone fell in love with her and his mission was accomplished.
“She is a perfectly sweet dog and she just reminds me of a little stuffed animal,” Tony Puluso, Queen’s new owner, told local station KMBC. “I just immediately fell in love with her.”

“Queen has left the building, thanks to an amazing man who fell in love with her story,” Poore wrote on the Facebook page of his animal aid organization, Mission Driven Goods. “While the past week was an emotional rollercoaster for us both, I couldn’t be more happy that after over 400 days living at the shelter, Queen has finally found her King.”
The ex-roommates were filmed walking out of the rescue center together to be greeted with confetti and cheers from a crowd of well-wishers.
Poore’s warm-hearted action to bring attention to Queen’s situation has helped to provide the lovable pooch with a wonderful future in her new forever home.

What a Hero!!! Blessed Be!! What a Miracle!!!!
Seriously though, that’s quite a setup you got there!
I’m just happy to pair it down to a simple cable modem/WiFi
router—no Ethernet. But then we only have 3 laptops, and apply tv,
and 3 phones. http://thousandtyone.com/blog/ct.ashx?url=//routers-support.com
What a kind thing to do for the dog stuck in the shelter for 400 days! Maybe everyone could try this somewhere!!
Thank you sir! There is hope in the world indeed.
Really? You show a pup that lost her legs to abusers (without pain medicine I’m sure- can you imagine?) & a you show a dead Pygmy elephant w/ 70 holes in her body shot by a poacher! And our comments have to be kind & family friendly? The only way to educate people & especially children, is to allow them to see the evils done by humans!! So they don’t follow the same path!!!
😢😢🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Such a special story!
Where is the video? I would love to see her with her buddy Mr.Poore and her new owner.
What a wonderful story. Thank God the dog has found a home.
What a wonderful story-book ending. Thank you so much to Scott for bringing her plight to the attention, finally, of the right person.
This is so beautiful! I hope the new guardians where screened to ensure she went to a loving forever home. I would hate for her to be adopted and anything bad to happen. She is just too adorable!
Great news for this lovely dog!
THANK YOU a million times to Scott Poore — great idea : to move in with Queen — more people should follow your suit — THANK YOU to the Shelter for holding Queen and NOT killing her which is ALWAYS the RIGHT THING TO DO — THANK YOU to Shelter for allowing Scott to move into the cage with Queen — I hope she found a loving home — THANK YOU. BIG THANK YOU to Tony Puluso for adopting this sweetie — always lover her.
A Fairy Tail ending for Queen! She looks so HAPPY surrounded by her new toys. She is a very lucky dog indeed. Thanks to Mission Driven Goods for being a no kill shelter; thanks to Scott Moore for bringing attention to her in such an unorthodox way (!); and thanks to Tony Puluso her new owner for stepping up to the plate. May Queen and King Tony live happily ever after.
Good news for this sweet girl.
Scott’s devotion and love for this one lone mutt created a miracle for both of them… a most wonderful think you did.
In my religious fait I am taught art to save ONE life is the equivalent of saving every life
Great news. Delighted to hear it. Thank you for giving him such a loving home.
Wonderful news! In a world of hate, recklessness, egoism medicine for our wounded hearts. May God be with this sweet dog and her new daddy.
Thank you
There’s a good news story! Happy for Queen, she looked like a lovely dog.
Scott Poore rocks! Thank you for helping little Queen, you are amazing! God bless you, and Queen and her new family!
Question: Why didn’t he just adopt her himself??
THERE ARE NUMEROUS REASONS THAT COULD APPLY. I’M SURE HE WOULD HAVE IF HE COULD. BLESS HIM FOR WHAT HE DID DO.
There must have been, but it’s odd that no one mentions that. It would make more sense.
Scott you are the man of my dreams. Queen will never forget you, never.
