Depressed Dog Reunites with Beloved Volunteer After Return to Shelter
Vero’s story is one that tugs at the heartstrings. This gentle giant has spent a disproportionate amount of her life in shelters, yearning for a loving family to call her own. Through multiple surrenders and countless days spent waiting, Vero’s spirit remains unbroken, and with your help, her dream of a forever home can finally come true.
A history of waiting: From Miami to Caloosa
Three years ago, Vero arrived at Miami Dade Animal Services as a surrendered owner. At the time, the then three-year-old dog held the unfortunate title of the shelter’s second-longest resident. Despite her playful and affectionate nature, Vero remained unnoticed by potential adopters. A beacon of hope emerged in the form of a kind volunteer. This individual formed a special bond with Vero, taking her on walks under the Miami sunshine and promising a brighter future with a loving family.
That dream appeared to materialize when Vero was adopted. Tails wagged and eyes sparkled as she left the shelter with her new family. However, this joy was tragically short-lived. Just 24 hours later, Vero found herself back at a shelter – this time, at the Caloosa Humane Society in Labelle, Florida. The news devastated the Miami shelter staff and particularly, Vero’s dedicated volunteer. This selfless individual, heartbroken, drove to Caloosa to see her furry friend.

The reunion between Vero and her volunteer was bittersweet. While the dog’s spirits were understandably low, her tail wagged a little faster at the sight of a familiar face. The volunteer spent the day with Vero, making a solemn promise – to find this deserving dog a permanent, loving home. Tears streamed down her face as she reassured Vero that she wasn’t forgotten. The volunteer firmly believed that by sharing Vero’s story, the right person would finally notice this sweet soul.
