He reminded her so much of the dog she’d just lost. After Sonny was abandoned, Happy Doggo stepped in to rescue him and give him the time he needed to heal, gain weight and grow his fur back. Dodo editor Monica spoke with Beth, who had just lost her dog Sena and wasn’t planning to adopt again so soon. But when she saw Sonny and how much he reminded her of Sena, she couldn’t resist.

00:00When this dog's family abandoned him, he waited relentlessly, hoping that they'd come back until he was slowly becoming skin
00:07and bones.
00:07One day, I logged in online and saw a clip of Sonny. He looked very, very broken, very beaten, and
00:14Happy Doggo took him in.
00:18The emotional trauma had taken its toll on Sonny, but now that he was in the right, loving hands with
00:24Happy Doggo, his recovery could finally begin.
00:27His fur came back through and he gained some weight, but personality-wise, I think he was always just very
00:34gentle and sweet from the moment that they took him in.
00:37There was just this clip of him sat on the sofa, and he just looked so much like Sina in
00:42the eyes.
00:48Sonny didn't just randomly fall into Beth's lap. Their story almost felt meant to be.
00:53This is Sina, Beth's sole dog who unfortunately passed away.
00:58You are so excited!
01:02We fell in love with Sina, and so did many of you when we shared her unbelievable transformation story on
01:08the dodo.
01:08When Beth came across a video of Sonny, he reminded her so much of Sina that she couldn't shake the
01:14feeling that they were just meant to meet.
01:16We had no intention of getting another dog so soon.
01:19When I saw that clip and felt kind of like I was looking at her, it just really felt like
01:24he was meant to come to us.
01:27Honestly, as soon as we got him home, it was like he'd always been here.
01:32He settled himself straight in.
01:38One of my favorite things with Sonny is when he's sleeping and he's twitching in his sleep, because that's just
01:44pure level of comfort and safety.
01:47Sonny!
01:49Thank you, Sonny!
01:51You guys always make me cry on these things.
01:53It's okay, we don't want you to cry.
01:56I obviously felt like I didn't have enough time with Sina, and I still had so much love to, like,
02:02give to her.
02:04So now being able to channel that into Sonny, who's also just as deserving as Sina was, that's kind of
02:11just given me a new purpose.
