The woman dropped to her knees in the middle of the adoption floor as the scruffy dog covered her in kisses and muddy paw prints.

What started as an ordinary Adoption Day turned into one of the most beautiful reunions the shelter had ever seen.

Now this lucky boy has a warm home, long walks, and a mom who will never let him go.
