A dog named Furby, found abandoned in a park with his bed and blankets, has been rehomed after a rescue team in Houston stepped in. The young pup was discovered by a rescue worker known as @pippyspals, who was joined by a friend documenting the experience on TikTok.
In the video, Furby is seen sitting beside his belongings with a sad expression, seemingly waiting for his owner to return. The rescuer said: 'It’s heartbreaking to think about why someone would abandon such a young pup who is completely unaware of how to survive on his own.'
Social media users expressed heartbreak over the dog's plight. One commented: 'He stayed in that spot because his owner left him there. He probably thinks they might come back. Thinking about it makes me cry.' Another said: 'How can someone dump this angel? It broke my heart.'
Despite over 200 adoption applications, the rescue centre carefully selected a local family with a confident dog to help Furby adjust. The centre announced: 'Furby is home! He is doing so well in his forever home, and we are just thrilled for this awesome family!'
Furby's story has a happy ending, with one Facebook user commenting: 'He finally got his happy ending.' Another added: 'I hope he loves his new home. Thank you for giving him a new chance at life after his unfortunate start.'
