Veronica is a charming Pit Bull who had been waiting eagerly to leave her kennel at a shelter in Florida, USA.
So when an adopter came forward and decided to open her heart and home to her, the dog didn't hide her joy. She seemed to understand perfectly well what was unfolding.
An adorable reaction
As the adoption papers were being signed at the shelter, the lovely two-toned dog was beside the woman who was about to become her new mum. Seeming to grasp that she would finally be able to leave the shelter walls behind, the dog didn't hold back. She put on a real display of affection towards the person who was at last going to get her out of there.
Ready to write a new story full of tenderness and companionship, the dog already seemed to be thanking her benefactor.

A grateful companion
Shelters are full of adorable dogs who are just waiting to give their love. Veronica will no doubt be a four-legged companion who knows how to show her gratitude every single day.
