What Happened After This Photo of 2 Hugging Dogs Went Viral

Jul 26 2015 - 10:35am

Yesterday, best puppy friends Kala and Keira were stuck in a shelter together and knew that if they weren't rescued soon, they'd be put to sleep — but thanks to a photo that went viral on Facebook, all that changed.

"We're so scared in here," the organization Angels Among Us Pet Rescue posted in the photo [1] in the voice of the pups. "The people working in the shelters see how scared we are but just told each other that today is our deadline."

"Today is their last day unless we can save them," the shelter urged. The photo quickly spread on the Internet, gaining over 16,000 likes and 9,000 shares.

Because of the power of the Internet and a lot of kind souls, all it took was two hours and six minutes for these puppies to be claimed and out of harm's way. "We just received word from our Angels volunteer that Kala and Keira are safely in the car and on their way to a vet — all thanks to you," Angels Among Us happily wrote as they updated the Facebook post.

CRYING.
