Oh how emotional! I must admit, I could barely watch it. I want to take every one of those dogs home with me. I am so happy for Stanley. I even want to take the dogs in the mall pet shops homes, even though I don't have to feel sorry for them as they will surely be bought.

I started watching it and couldn't finish.

Hi DPG - you really should finish watching the video. It's got a good ending, and just goes to show what can happen when just one person decides to do just one thing. Personally, I'm looking forward to the rest of Stanley's story!

Well, well. A post on this forum, has never stirred my emotions, like this one. And I'm quite sure, another never will. I can't believe a short video can instantly fill you with tears of sadness, and then change those same tears to those of happiness, in a matter of minutes.
Very touching. Tough to watch in the begining, but stay with it. It pays dividends.

Get the tissues out. That was a wonderful and heartwarming video. I can't wait to see the next one. Truly a Christmas Miracle that touched my heart as much as the David/Sean Goldman reunion.

Thanks for sharing such a wonderful video.

that this was just heartbreaking to watch yet found it to have a very happy ending for Stanley. Thank God. Now just hope the other animals find the same happiness.

I watched it Sunday morning and when "Have yourself a merry little Christmas" started playing, I lost it. I just watched it again and the same feelings came on.

Thank you for sharing. I also hope we learn more of Stanley's recovery.
