Having to separate from your family is extremely painful, whether it regards people or animals. In either case, in fact, one is forced to leave and stay away from loved ones.

It is a dramatic situation, which no one wants to experience, but that, unfortunately, is sometimes unavoidable.

Whoever thinks that animals do not have emotions, will have to think again after reading this story, and, above all, after having seen in AJ's tears all the distress for the enormous loss he has suffered.

The dog you see in the picture is AJ. He is a beautiful cross between a Pitt Bull and Labrador Retriever, is six years old and is experiencing one of the worst moments of his life. In fact, he was just left at the Saving Carson Shelter Dogs, a kennel in Gardena, California; and his is a double loss --- of both the family and his canine brother, Toby. 

The old owners of AJ were in fact forced to give up both dogs because they could no longer afford to keep them.

In the video posted on Facebook by the kennel, you can see all of AJ's suffering. He is frightened and alone, the poor dog seems to communicate a desperate request for help with his sweet sad eyes which are even further inflamed by a cold.

In the message, the kennel informs the public that AJ is a dog that is "a pure beauty, gentle, and 100 loving" that is inviting someone to come forward to adopt him and take him away from the cold and loneliness of the cage in which it is forced to stay.

This beauty touched the hearts of a lot of people and today he was lucky enough to take his FREEDOM Walk out of the Shelter, even while he is struggling with a cold. He was Rescued and we are hoping tomorrow that Rescue will work with the different Rescue that is saving his Bonded Brother TOBY, so they can be reunited. Both have been seriously depressed since they were separated... Happy life sweet AJ <3 PHOTO: https://www.facebook.com/savingcarsonshelterdogs/photos/a.219655291540446.1073741846.171850219654287/536011676571471/?type=3&theater

Such a message could not remain unanswered! In fact, the video was viewed 5 million times and shared by more than 22 thousand people, who had been undoubtedly touched by AJ's despair and had decided to help him. And so it was! Finally, AJ found a new family, who enthusiastically welcomed him and were so impressed by his story that they decided to also adopt his brother Toby! 

An incredible story of love and solidarity that overcame every barrier and that inspires hope and confidence in the human race!
