It's always amazing when a dog who's lived a life of turmoil finally gets to go to a loving forever home.
There's no happier dog than a pooch who gets to experience comfort and joy for the very first time.
Charlie the pit bull lived a life in shelters and heaven knows where else. This pooch wore a look of absolute fear and dread on his face as he awaited his future in the shelter.
Then one day, his big moment finally came. Twitter user Meriah Jae's sister walked into the shelter in Texas and brought that pouty pooch into her home.
The pictures of Charlie before and after the adoption couldn't look more different. A whole new, happy dog was hiding behind that sad face the whole time.
Who knew?
