An animal shelter is a place where miracles can happen. It’s a place where animals bond and start long friendships and most of the times they will refuse to be separated. You might have seen adoption ads that announce people they must adopt two dogs at a time because they’re inseparable.
Unfortunately, not all people can afford to get two pets. That’s until you see this story that will break your heart into a million pieces!

She decided to get the pair, and it’s not difficult to understand why. Seeing them together, Brinton fell in love. Getting to the new house made both dogs nervous. Settling in the new place would be difficult, but what’s important is that they’re together.

Sully is so Considerate!
Alaina Brinton Instagram
Because Sully is younger than Lucy, he needs to run more. So, when at the dog park, Brinton said that he would roam around the park and Lucy would take a break. But he ‘will come back and check on Lucy every couple of minutes or so’.

Both Sully and Lucy needed someone in their lives to comfort them and they first found each other and then they also got a home. Life could not be any better side by side, loved by their human best friend!
