When dogs arrive at shelters, staff and volunteers work tirelessly to find them loving homes as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, for some dogs, the wait can be long, especially for those with special needs. Jacko, a 5-year-old blind Collie, was one such dog.
Jacko arrived at Many Tears Animal Rescue with hopes of finding a home quickly. However, as days turned into weeks and weeks into months, Jacko remained in the kennel, waiting for the right family to come along. Despite his affectionate nature with people he trusted, Jacko’s suspicion of strangers made finding the perfect home challenging.
The rescue team was determined to find Jacko a family that could provide the special care and love he needed. They knew Jacko would thrive in a rural home with a large garden where he could run freely, but finding that perfect match took time.
Finally, after 15 long months, the day Jacko and the rescue team had been waiting for arrived—Jacko was adopted! The rescue joyfully shared the news on TikTok, celebrating that Jacko now had his own field to run in and a committed owner who would shower him with love and care.
Jacko’s new life includes not only freedom but also furry companions to share it with. The rescue expressed their happiness, saying, “No one deserves it more than our sweet Jacko. Congratulations on your adoption!”
Jacko’s story is a reminder of the patience and dedication required in rescue work and the joy that comes when a deserving dog finally finds a loving home.
