In an episode of Animal Planet, volunteers Tia and Mariah performed a touching gesture that is quickly going viral.
Tia and Mariah had heard of Joshuaโs story, and were touched by it. He was a war veteran who, upon returning to civilian life, found it hard to adapt and cope with. He felt out of place and was completely isolated from others. However, he came to love and adore two dogs that showed him the loyalty and support he needed to get back on his feet. Named Panda and Mama, these two dogs stuck with Joshua when nobody else would.

However, heartbreak struck when Joshua was forced to move to California. He couldnโt bring Mama and Panda with him, so he left them behind in Louisiana. He dearly missed his dogs, and he asked Tia and Mariah to bring them to California for him.
They drove the dogs to Joshua, where they reunited in Los Angeles. Joshuaโs reunion with his two dogs is absolutely touching. Itโs immediately clear his dogs missed him so much. They begin to wag their tails rapidly, and they jump on and kiss their owner. More importantly, the two dogs are finally eating again. They stopped eating when Joshua left.

The sanctuary staff played a crucial role in ensuring the successful integration of the ducks into their new home.
They carefully guided the ducks into the pond, allowing them to acclimate to their new surroundings at their own pace.
This gentle approach helped the ducks feel secure and confident, ultimately enabling them to join the existing flock without fear of nocturnal predators.
The staffโs patience and care were evident throughout the process.
As the ducks continue to thrive in their new environment, their journey stands as a beacon of hope and resilience.
The sanctuaryโs work is far from over, but the success of this rescue operation is a testament to what can be achieved with dedication and compassion.
For these ducks, the future is now filled with the promise of care, comfort, and, most importantly, the freedom to swim whenever they please.
Their story will undoubtedly inspire others to support and advocate for animal welfare.
