If you’ve ever had the pleasuring of rescuing a dog from a shelter, then you already know that it’s one of the best experiences you can ever have.

But some people are still wary about adopting some pooches.

A woman posted a video on TikTok and showed folks how her decision to rescue a dog has made a big impact of her and her new best friend.

The video’s text overlay reads, “In your 20s, someone will tell you to not adopt the dog that’s been sitting in the shelter for 9+ months.”

The TikTokker is seen sitting with a clearly nervous dog at a shelter.

The text overlay continued, “It’s very important that you do it anyways.”

The video then shows the dog living its best life, taking a car ride, and playing in a backyard with her and two other dogs.

We love a happy ending!

Check out the video.
