Viral Post Saves Two Dogs On Death Row

Angels Among Us Pet Rescue is a non-profit charity dedicated to saving dogs and cats from high-kill shelters in north Georgia.

On Monday, they received a photo by Malena Evans of two dogs hugging who were scheduled to be euthanized.  They posted it along with this:

I’m Kala. This is Keira. We’re so scared in here. The people working in the shelters see how scared we are but just told each other that today is our deadline. We have to have someone rescue us or we’ll be “next.” Keira is black and not a “real boxer,” just a mix. She’s so brave and tells me it will be okay no matter what happens. She tells me to be brave too but I don’t know if I can be. Can you see our faces. Keira knows what will happen. You can see it in her eyes. She’s putting on a brave face for sure but I can feel her heart beating fast while I’m clinging to her. If no one saves us, someone will take her away from me. I’ll see her as she goes down the hallway. She won’t come back and I’ll cry. They’ll come for me next and I won’t be as brave. We’ve comforted each other while we were here. She gave me hope when I had none. Now it’s over. Unless…

Two hours and six minutes later, Keira and Kala were on their way home with their new owner, who’d seen the post, which had been shared over 9,000 times.
