A rescued pit bull can't stop hugging his new owner with happiness. Incredibly cute!
When Kayla Philun, a volunteer dog walker at the shelter, saw a pit bull named Russ for the first time, she was sure they would be together.
“Russ came to the shelter as a stray dog. It was clear from his appearance that he had been beaten.”
“Besides, he had no fur on his tail and ears, and besides, he was terribly skinny.”
“He just sat there calmly looking at me and I thought I need to get him right now.”
The girl knew that she needed to act quickly, since 15 dogs were to be euthanized at the shelter in the near future.
“Any dog could be included in this number and Russ was definitely one of them.”
From the moment Kayla took the pit bull home, she never doubted that he was the perfect dog.
Russ turned out to be a very loving, affectionate and grateful dog
“One night I was sitting on the couch doing homework, and he tried to hug me in every possible way...”
“My friend took some photos, posted them online and they immediately went viral.”
Philun hopes these pictures will inspire other people to adopt shelter animals.
