If there is one thing that dogs are extremely gifted at, it’s stealing people’s hearts in the most adorable ways possible.

Sometimes, they don’t even have to do anything special. Just seeing their happy smile as they become excited to see you is enough to make just about anyone’s day.

That’s how I felt anytime I saw my dog and it’s a memory that I will always cherish. This little pup had the same gift.

Even though she was a stray and didn’t have any place she could call home, she decided to take a nap in someone’s yard in hopes that the owners would notice her. Well, it’s safe to say her hopes would come true.

Aly Was Completely Surprised

Just as she was about to leave her house and take her dogs for a walk, Aly Mac noticed something strange in her yard.

Upon closer inspection, she realized there was the sweetest stray dog sleeping there and she just looked so adorable.

Luckily for him, Mac was a volunteer for Love Leo Rescue in California, so she wanted to do whatever she could to help this sweet dog.

She told The Dodo: “I wasn’t sure if she was even alive because I kept speaking to her and she wasn’t budging. But then she finally started to open her eyes. I could tell she was very tired and weak and depleted.”

Mac realized that the walk would have to wait, so she took her dogs back inside and brought some food and water for this stray pup.

She wanted to get the dog inside the house, so she tried to lure her with food. The pup ate everything pretty fast, and Mac was able to place a leash on her.

It was successful and she slowly led the stray pup into her house. Upon examining the dog, she noticed a lot of scars on her.

The main assumption was that the dog was used for breeding and she was abandoned after she outlived her usefulness. While there was no way to confirm that, it was a safe bet.

Coconut Is Very Popular

She was taken to the vet for a checkup and to see if she had a microchip. The results came back negative, but she did have parasites, fleas, and tapeworm, so she would need treatment.

Mac said: “Once I got her home, I gave her a luxurious flea bath. She was not happy about getting a bath, but once we got her in, she dealt with it. And I’m pretty sure she had the best sleep she’d had in a long time.”

Even though she grew very fond of this pup, she knew she couldn’t keep him, so she asked for help from her Californian rescuers.

They were able to find a foster home for the dog, now named Coconut, and Mac was so happy for her. The rescuers also shared her story online where it became very popular.

Many adoption requests started pouring in and the rescuers just wanted to find someone who was perfect for her.

Soon enough, that day came and Coconut was taken into her forever home where she is so happy with her new owners. 

Sasha Abelson, the founder of Love Leo Rescue said: “It didn’t take long, because she got so much interest. The video really catapulted her into her forever home.”

It’s comforting to know that so many people reached out to help this dog. I hope Coconut’s story raises awareness about all the other shelter dogs who need help because they all deserve a happy ending like her. I wish her all the best.
