Abandonment has many negative consequences for animals. They are left with the latent feeling that they could be hurt again at any moment.
However, when they meet again with a person who is in charge of giving them all his affection, they show an unbeatable gratitude. This is because they appreciate being helped to heal their most painful wounds. This is what happened with Stanley, an adorable little dog who, when he was rescued, met the best friend who allowed him to be happy again. Below we share with you all the details of this beautiful story.
The bond between the rescued dog and his new friend. Sam, the dog’s new best friend, is a man who walks dogs in a shelter. Thus, on one of his work days he met the affectionate Stanley. The connection between the two was genuine and immediate. For that reason, Sam made the decision to adopt Stanley to give him the loving home he deserved. From the very first moment, the little dog formed a special bond with his friend. He would always put his paw on him.

Thus, with this special act he communicated to him that he was willing to become his inseparable companion. Also, that by his side he felt safe, loved and important. Because of this, whenever Sam was driving, he would always put his paw on him to tell him that he was looking out for him. Also, so that he could feel at ease and enjoy the journey they were going through.
In the same way, the rescued puppy sleeps next to Sam and during the whole night he puts his paw on his body. In addition, if the man moves, he settles back down next to him so as not to lose contact at any time. This is how it can be inferred that the puppy acquired this behavior to avoid being abandoned again. However, it is also a way of telling Sam that he trusts him and feels good when they are together. As a result of that situation, today Sam and Stanley enjoy day-to-day close contact. They are also inseparable companions on trips and new experiences.
This story demonstrates two conclusions, one troubling and one poignant. First, it is compelling evidence that dogs who suffer some form of abuse are left with an imminent fear that something similar will happen to them again.
However, they also show great unconditionality to the people who change their lives. They are willing to give them the same protection and love that they showed them from the beginning.
