Love knows no boundaries, evident in many situations. No matter the distance between two people in love, if their bond is strong enough, it will prevail.
This sentiment is especially true for dogs, as shown in heartwarming videos where a dog cannot contain its excitement upon reuniting with its owner after months apart. Today’s touching story from Austin, Texas, illustrates this beautifully.
Grace, a 12-year-old dog living with her family in Austin, became completely blind, causing her owners to worry about her happiness. However, over time, this little senior dog began to adapt to her new reality, holding onto her love for her canine sister, Katie, and her mom, Shelby Salmela. One person held a special place in Grace’s heart: Shelby’s mom, Wendy, who lived in another state. Their visits were rare but always memorable.
Shelby captured one of these reunions on video, captioning it, “Best day ever.” Grace was overwhelmed with excitement when she sensed Wendy’s presence, unable to contain her joy. Though she couldn’t see Wendy, her love lived vividly in Grace’s heart, where the view is always bright. WATCH VIDEO BELOW
While this video paints an idyllic picture of Grace’s life, it wasn’t always easy. A few years ago, her parents noticed one of her eyes was larger than the other and rushed her to the vet. There, she was diagnosed with inherited glaucoma, leading to the removal of her right eye. Unfortunately, pressure began to rise in her left eye as well, and they ultimately had to agree to its removal, fearing her life would never be the same.
Though her life changed, it also became richer. Overcoming this obstacle only strengthened Grace’s love, allowing her to see with her heart and become a true warrior of love. WATCH VIDEO BELOW
