7-Year-Old Boy Reassures His Traumatized Rescue Dog That He Is ‘Loved So Much’

We all know that dogs are humans’ best friends, but the bond between a dog and a child is something else! That level of mutual understanding and protectiveness towards each other is just a microcosm that can’t be described with simple words.

One such story comes from Louisiana, where a seven-year-old boi dazzled the entire Internet by his heartwarming act. 

After he and his mom adopted a Pittie mix that had a rough past from a shelter, this kind boy decided to give his canine a little reassurance. 

He wanted to make sure the dog understood that from now on – everything will be fine. But, the way he did it melted the hearts of millions of people around the world!

Before he even got the chance to be adopted, Neil, the Pittie mix, was a victim of animal abuse. This blonde boi was admitted to Companion Animal Alliance, from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, with severe cigarette burns.

“He was also the only dog in the shelter not barking,” wrote Neil’s new owner.

Back in the shelter, Neil was a traumatized dog that needed some time to adapt to the new circumstances, but his life soon took an unexpected turn!

The boy and his mom arrived at the shelter to look for a dog, and that’s when they saw Neil. Despite his rough past, this sweet Pittie mix wasn’t displaying any sign of aggressiveness, and he was so gentle with the woman’s son.

Prior to his adoption, CAA offered exclusive adoptions for $15 in the attempt to promote animal rescues. According to his mom, the boy, who desperately wanted a dog for himself, saved up his pocket money and paid for the dog’s adoption fee himself.

The three of them went home and Neil started a brand-new life, but what happened upon their arrival just melted everyone’s heart!

“We love you so much,” said the boy.

Then, he gave him the cutest pat on the back, and Neil reciprocated with a tail wag.
