What better way to celebrate National Dog Day than with a heartwarming video showcasing the power of adoption?
The dogs in this video were all abused and neglected before PETA workers rescued them and found their new forever homes. Justice and Cora had infections from collars that had become deeply embedded in their necks; Chickpea the Chihuahua and her puppy, Potato, were found at a yard sale alongside trinkets and toasters, to be passed off to anyone who offered the right price.
“These dogs’ new leases on life mean that they’re treated like canine kings and queens every day of the year,” says PETA Vice President Colleen O’Brien. “At the heart of PETA’s video is the message that people should have their companion animals spayed or neutered and always adopt them from shelters—never buy them from breeders or pet stores.”

PETA does wonderful things especially behind the scenes –(investigations, etc.) —- only uninformed people criticize their organization –of course there are also trolls that fear PETA so they try to discredit -thank you Peta
Way to go PETA I think the work you do is outstanding people who criticise are afraid because you are showing them how animals should be cared for keep up the good work I only wish I could work with you
I know how those animal companions and their guardians feel. The three dogs who share my home are all rescues. We’re a happy pack.
Love these happy endings! I hope these sweet stories will inspire others to open their hearts and homes to animals in need.
I love this! I adopted my dog from an open-admission shelter and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. If you have the time, resources, energy, and space for a companion animal I encourage you to adopt one from your local shelter, and don’t forget to spay/neuter.
What a wonderful read, especially on National Dog Day! Thank you, and thank you PETA for all you do!!
