I refused my youngest son for two years. I was only thinking of my finances and not how much he needed a best friend and companion. I was put on the spot one day and here we are about to celebrate his sweet Daisy’s 14th birthday. I have never been so happy to have been so wrong while also being ashamed at being so wrong. Every kid deserves a dog/pet.
You should not feel bad at all. So many don’t consider what is involved when adopting a pet and the poor pet winds up back at the shelter. When the time was right, you did what was right and wound up with your perfect pet. Well done!! 💞
thank u for being honest
Happy Birthday Ms Daisy... and there's no room for shame in being a good Mom.
If you hadn't waited, you might not have found ur girl. Kismet.

Don't feel bad. You wanted to be responsible. Owning a dog can be expensive. Especially the trips to the vet. Most people don't even consider these costs because they only want to hold a cute puppy. I wish more people were like you. It would save us from stray animals.
Agree with the others! Don’t feel shame for being a responsible parent. Side benefit, by waiting for two years, you taught your son patience, persistence, and an understanding that you can’t always have what you want immediately. Great job, mom! ❤❤❤
Thank you for adopting Stella and for giving her the home she always deserved.
I lost my dog of 18 years just this last year. Her name was "Stella," as well. Sometimes, you make that connection, and it can't be denied. Keep them close for as long as you got them, folks. It's not about how many years are in their lives. It's about how much life is in their years.
Well, now I'm tearing up. 17 years with my kitty who died April 2023 were not nearly enough.
So sorry for your loss.
LOVE dogs - and cats, only ever had cats due to multiple reasons. Losing someone who has been with you for that long - I am so sorry, mate. My cat's 12,loving, and active, but we know it is a limited time, could be 3 months, could be 8 years
I don't believe in god, but if you do, god bless you.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
💛💛💛💛💛👍😻
Thanks for adopting-such a good example for a child.
What a precious dog. You are a very lucky family, and she a lucky dog.
Stella was meant to be. So happy for all of you.
Wasn’t allowed pets as a child, and haven’t been without at least two dogs for all of my adult life (I’m in my late 50s).
Judging from this video, these parents have figured out it’s not necessarily “for the child,” it’s to expand their family and enrich their lives… ALL of their lives. Good stuff!
I grew up with 2 dogs in the yard.
As an adult its been 2 dogs where ever I am.
Car rides, travel, inside, outside, hiking & patio time.
Turn around they are right there.
All good stuff :)
Great job dad for getting your son a dog and saving the dogs life.
This was such a heartwarming story! So glad this sweet boy got to adopt her. She seems so loved! So nice to see good people out there adding beautiful dogs to their lives. Dogs are pure love.
Kids and dogs :)
@@iyamwhatiyam547 Yes! Love it!
perfect match!Best friends for ever.@@iyamwhatiyam547
A decision you will NEVER regret❣️
Thank you for giving Stella a forever family & home!!!🥰🥰🥰
I rescued a small abandoned dog and the vet kept her while I searched for her owners or a new home. On line I went on my favorite message boards talking about how I couldn't have a dog, as I already hed two cats. Practically the first response was "So, what are you going to name her?" She became my first dog.
😂🥰🤣
Thank you for reaching out to your landlord' first. So many pets lose their homes when the landlord says no. Stella is adorable
Doggos are a most excellent judge of hoomans. She knows a good family.
The best friend a child will ever have is a pet. Unconditional love and friendship on tap. Teaches responsibility, kindness and compassion. Xx
Most definitely
I'm covered in goose bumps.
I'm so happy for your son & the doggy❤
YOU did the right thing DAD❤❤
Thank you to EVERYONE who adopts, fosters, rescues and donates. The world needs you.
❤
Give those nice humans some treats since the beautiful pup trained them into doing the right thing 😂.
Always a pleasure seeing a dog being taken out of a shelter and into a loving home. Thanks for sharing 💙🐕👍.
The way this sweet dog put her head on Dad's shoulder. How could you say no to that face.
Great job, Dad! And Stella looks like she's been with you forever! Congrats on expanding your family!
And the universe has spoken. I wish them many many happy and healthy years together.
Good job Dad!
Stella is beautiful. you can clearly tell how much she is loved. I know
that she and the cat will become good friends but it will take some time
for them. ALL CHILDREN SHOULD GROW UP WITH A PET.
Taking son to adoption ctr. & saying no dog today, is like going to carnival & no rides.. great dog…
Seriously, was the act for the kid of the DODO?
Yup!
you've never gone window shopping? I actually approve of this method. It teaches patience. And that not all wants and desires are met instantly. That's a huge problem for a lot of people these days - instant gratification. That turned out well. Now we have practically everybody on one drug or another looking for that immediate reward. But I still respect your opinion, Jennifer. :)
I feel like the dad was inclined to get one but didn't want to get his kid's hopes up, _but_ wanted to give his kid a surprise if the right dog was there
getting everything you want when you want it is not a recipe for happiness. Patience is something we could all use.
Stella sealed it with that lick😂
Looks like Daddy got a new dog, and oh yeah, his son :)
Congrats Dog Family!
It was the perfect time for Stella !! 😊
All children with responsible parents should have animals it teaches them so much
What a good dad. Feels like they were meant to go to the shelter that day and find her 💓
You are perfect together 🫶🫶🫶
Congrats guys….you just saved a life! She’s a wonderful new friend!!
bless that beautiful kid. there's nothing better than a happy child on this earth.
How I wish there were more families like this one! Great people!! Only get a dog or cat if you are kind people and are good to animals!!
It wasn't the perfect time, but it was the right time. Im so glad that Stella found her forever family. ❤❤
Thank goodness we lived out in the sticks. Didn't matter what a landlord thought since we owned the farm. We got another dog while our current dog was on its last legs. It helped with training since we got a dog to guard our sheep.
A kid needs a dog, someone to listen to their dreams and wishes, someone to love. ❤
Aww I love these rescue stories. Enjoy your lives together!
Dogs are not stupid. She knew to win the dad over!
It wasn't the perfect time for you and your family, but it was most perfect time for Stella. Thank you for taking on this sweet gem of a dog!
Yay Dad!
Nothing beats growing up with a dog 😊
Stella is an equal loving dog, she appears to love the whole family. 😀
Dad fell in love when the dog gave him kisses......
That young man will learn so much from Stella. That IS PRICELESS!!
Glad to see how realistic the owners are about the cost of owning a pet. It’s ridiculously expensive and unfortunate that there’s not many veterinarians like Dr. Jeff in Colorado who gives pet owners a break when they love their pets but can’t afford to pay for the medical care they need. It’s heartbreaking to hear about pet owners having to euthanize them because they don’t have the resources.
Honestly that was just such a beautiful connection for everyone under that roof. The joy of rescue filling your heart and home ❤
The cuteness was just too strong
The decent home for this unlucky go lucky dog. The boy is kind.
Thanks for mentioning the kindness of the boy.
He listened to his Dad with patience and kindness and the way he is with his dog, heartwarming.
That family has the secret sauce.
Thank you very much for adopting
Stella & giving her a forever home
I’ve had pets all of my life ! Dogs as well !
this family and Stella won the lottery with each other! ❤
I can't stop smiling
Thanks very much for adopting this sweet dog 🐶❤️. Be happy forever sweet dog with your lovely family ❤️.
With exception of my first dog given to me at Christmas when I was 15 every pet I've owned has been rescued. They deserve 2nd chances as well!
So glad this was a happy ending with a dog a new home!!
So beautiful 😊❤
Thank you for adopting Stella and giving her a forever home that she she needs ❤❤❤❤❤❤God bless everyone ❤️ 🙏 ♥️ 😊 💙 💜 ❤️ 🙏 ♥️ 😊
Wow, that was absolutely meant to be! What a dog! Thanks for bringing her a loving home.
I am very grateful to my parents for allowing us to have all the animals we wanted. I remember we had a dog, a cat and a parrot at the same time. We told mom what we wanted, she told dad and he said "okay".
The dog loved dad more than anyone else, they did everything together - walked, ate, slept.
I miss that time very much 🧡
Thank you and God bless you. I wish all dogs could have this good if home. I have four rescue dogs.🙏🙏❤️❤️👍👍
That the perfect dog! Just waiting there for you.
It's hard not to want to adopt a pet!! But sometimes you can't resist!! It's that driving instinct that motivates us into taking these precious pets home!! That's what happened to this family!! Hopefully They both can see eye to eye!!😊
Sir you have all my respect and admiration.
Rescues are the best ❤
Her eyes at the beginning so sad. I wouldn't have been able to resist either. Such a sweetie!
And I love that they are being responsible and keeping gates up to make sure that the animals are separated until everything is safe.
🙏🙏🙏🙏ENDLESS GRATIDE for giving Stella a loving 🏠!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m so glad They went to the Shelter to Get a Dog They saved a Life and made One Little boy Happy 🙏
My mom told me that if I found a cat and it followed me home that I could keep it. My mom underestimated my patience. 3 cats later, she redacted this offer.
He really put his foot down! Haha. Thank you! Adopting from a shelter has many benefits, including being way less expensive than finding a stray and going to the vet. most things are already done prior to being adopted!
Good for you. I don't know what I'd do without my rescued Pit Bull. My husband loves him too.
She's beautiful. Beautiful personality too
The best thing is :
You’ve got a dog now !
Wow, they both are beautiful gorgeous puppy dogs.
Our dog that we saved from a shelter back in 2012 passed away last month, a week later we went to the shelter again and adopted another one and she is perfect for us
I’m glad u got her! She’s a perfect fit for your family!🥰🐾🥰
Amazing how Stella was a perfect fit from the moment they all met. Meant to be. Wonderful.
Thank you for Adopting her God bless you both❤
Great dog, so glad she found her perfect family
Stella is so sweet. I don't think Stella was the problem with the 2 previous families either. She's very well behaved. Your son is happy. You & your wife look happy. Baby Kitty...will come around... eventually. 😂
❤️🐾🐕🐾❤️🙏❤️🐾🐈⬛🐾❤️
Good call on caving in Dad. You're a good Dad
Great story. Hope y'all have many years with Stella. She made your family complete.
Why isn’t Miss Baby Kitty thanked at the end? She handled Stella’s arrival so well! Such a sweet video. I’m glad they all found each other. ❤
Adopted my previous dog the same way. Daughter wanted to see dogs in the shelter and we ended up adopting her. Beautiful shepherd mix, just like Stella. Dixie was our friend and companion for 13 years. Wonderful, smart and brave
I love the way this Dad talked with his son. Also it is obvious, he is as happy with Stella as his son is.
Adorable family thankyou for adoption her she is beautiful ❤️
That "always had them" feeling is what happens when the dog picks you too. So happy for them all.
Wow, the cat is beautiful and gorgeous also!😍😻🐱🐈😻😍
“We are NOT getting a dog- not even if it’s perfect!” Comes home with the perfect baby
That dog was created for this family. Such a great fit!
Love this! Teaching kids to adopt is the best lesson ever!!
Stella was adopted from Hinsdale Humane Society in Hinsdale, IL! We are so happy for Stella and her new family (even Miss Kitty)! Thank you so much for making this feature to promote adoption.
@hinsdale, adopting saves two lives. The one you take home leaving a spot for another. Adopt, don't shop !! 😅 🐾
Stella is a gorgeous pup. Congratulations. I desperately want one just like her but I just can't provide a home a dog would need right now. I pet sit for my friends all the time though. Soon hopefully that will change.
Stella is beautiful! Beautiful fur soul! God bless you for giving her a loving family ❤!
Beautiful story. The cat’s reaction is pretty calm
Thank you for rescuing her! I hope the landlord was supportive! So many pets are rehomed due to landlords and renting issues... it's very sad!
Stella fits right in ,she was meant to be ❤, kitty will grow to love her thank you for giving her a loving home
What a great addition to your family.
Thank you for giving Stella a loving home!♥♥♥♥🐕💝
Thanx for adopting, not shopping
Wishing you dear Takis a Xonderful Birthday. Bless you and Thank you for all your wonderful work and Love to all the fur babies. Blessings Patricia
These are the moments and memories that lives are made of
