Many people get the chance to reflect on wonderful moments spent with loved ones, family get-togethers, and friends as the new year gets underway.

Sadly, it did not occur in the case of the dejected dog who, three months later, was still wearing the bright green Christmas sweater and longed to be adopted.

The puppy’s sad look speaks for itself.

Bobby is a sad-looking tiny dog with a bad name who was tragically abandoned by the family he had so completely trusted.

His owners left him in a shelter and took away his collar and leash, leaving him in a dreadful state of distress and bewilderment.

Volunteers at the Miami-Dade Animal Services Shelter were hopeful that Bobby would be lucky this Christmas despite his traumatic past.

In an effort to find him a home, they dressed him in a plush green sweater and posted a picture of him online.

He constantly sits dejectedly in the same spot.

Even though Bobby’s picture went viral and plenty of people fell in love with his story, the days passed, Christmas came and went, and he still didn’t have a family to give him a loving home.

The furry’s situation provoked a red code at the shelter, placing him at the top of a list that only contains puppies who would be sacrificed since his reality was too grim.

Because of his intelligence, Bobby the tiny dog was killed rather than made to feel unhappy.

Due to the ignorant greed of people who couldn’t comprehend how special he is, he came to the realization that he was in danger of dying.

All it took was for one family to place a wager on him.

“really sad Bobby, I hope you locate a residence soon. You deserve every ounce of love there is “said one online user.

The only thing that gave Bobby any color was still that uplifting green sweater. He was frail and unable to lift his small head, and his eyes were so shut from pain.

The Christmas spirit, however, can occasionally move too slowly, as was the case with this poor little dog.

Thankfully, a woman showed up at the shelter wanting to adopt Bobby, which spread joy throughout the shelter: Bobby had finally found his long-awaited family!

Another user of the internet commented, “I’m very happy for Bobby; it’s amazing that such a beautiful woman came to rescue him; it’s a miracle from heaven, he’s found his home for life; perhaps his old owners are not allowed to have any more pets.”

Bobby is currently ecstatic.

All of the puppy’s excitement was returned by his new human, who showered him with kisses and cuddles that helped him regain faith in people.

He has once more given of his heart, and we pray that his love will be accepted this time.

We wish Bobby the best of luck in putting his past behind him and finding the love he has always deserved. Bobby has a lot of love to give and receive.

Happy birthday, sweet child!

Keep in mind that there is a poor dog with a broken heart waiting for you to give him the chance to love and be loved, and that hopefully many more dogs will experience the late Christmas joy that might yet enter their lives.
