Adorable Dog Rescued From The Streets Melted With Love When She Found Out She Got Adopted

Adorable Dog Rescued From The Streets Melted With Love When She Found Out She Got Adopted

Living on the streets and looking for scraps of food day after day is hard and stressful for any dog, but for mother dogs, it’s even more so.

Nixi knows this firsthand. The brave mother dog wandered the Houston streets, fighting to keep her puppy safe and sound.

The love for her child kept her going at times when she was close to giving up.

One day, while Nixi was searching for food with her puppy, she came across a warehouse and saw some people who were working there.

Nixi wondered whether they would help her or chase her away.

Searching For Help

Since she was too afraid of humans, Nixi kept her distance.

Luckily, one of the workers noticed her and left some food for her and her pup.

Andrea, a big-hearted woman who was also working at the Houston warehouse, was compelled to help the dogs. 

She was worried for the mother and her puppy because it was freezing cold.

Nixi didn’t let the workers approach them. The doggo wasn’t sure what their intentions were.

The next day, Andrea and her co-worker made a trail out of food that led to their warehouse where they left food and blankets for Nixi and her puppy.

Unfortunately, the dogs got scared and ran away.

Andrea returned home that day but she couldn’t stop thinking about the mother dog and her baby.

When she came back to the warehouse the next morning, she found Nixi and her puppy lying on the blankets.

The kind woman was glad that they found shelter from the cold. She wrapped them in blankets and drove them to several shelters, but sadly, they couldn’t take them in.

Andrea didn’t give up. She drove the dogs to another shelter, which turned out to be closed. 

Just when she was about to leave, she met a young couple in the parking lot who wanted to adopt a puppy.

When they saw Nixi’s pup, they fell in love with him and took him home.

Andrea brought Nixi to her house and posted about her on social media. She was doing everything she could to find someone who could give the mama dog a forever home.

The Happy Ending She Always Hoped For

Once Nixi was at Andrea’s home, she breathed a sigh of relief. She sensed that she could trust her. She craved love and asked her hero to hold her.

Before long, Nixi stole Andrea’s heart and she decided to give her a forever home.

The dog’s reaction to being adopted was heartwarming. She constantly wanted to be close to her new mom and hold her hand.

“She does this thing where she sits back on her hind legs and she picks up her paws to try and she’ll place on my knee, or she’ll pick up her paw and she’ll place it on my hand,” Andrea told GeoBeats Animals.

Nixi’s new mom took her to the vet. 

The dog was diagnosed with several health issues and Andrea assumed that she lived on the street for months. 

Apart from being malnourished, Nixi was heartworm-positive, infested with fleas, and also had stomach worms.

She started receiving treatment and recovering at home.

At the very beginning, Nixi was very scared of humans.

Thanks to her family who doted on her and showered her with love, her confidence increased and she embraced her new life.

Now, she loves people and has a lot of love to give to everyone.

Nixi got the opportunity to see her puppy again and to meet his forever family. When the mama dog saw that he was well taken care of, she felt at ease.

Both she and her pup have lovely homes and families who adore them.
