Army Veteran Finds His Dog At A Shelter After Four Years Apart


It was a reunion that almost didn’t happen. In the two and a half months Bones was at the shelter, she had been briefly adopted.

The family brought her back when she and their other dog didn’t bond, Carotenuto said.

“It’s just a meant-to-be that she was still here,” she said.

In the week since she’s been home, Russo said she’s settled into a routine of walks on the beach and sprawling on his bed. However she got to the shelter, he said he’s just happy to have her back.

“That’s all I really care about,” said Russo, who is training to become an EMT and firefighter. “I’m happy if she’s happy.”

    Your ex should of told you she didn’t want Bones anymore, and give you first bids on her. Thankful everything worked out for you. Thanks for your service!! God Bless you both.

    Both of them definitely need to leave the x in the past and just look forward to what lays ahead ! Life of a dog is too short to dwell on the why , so get on with the because !!!! 😉
