Finding a place to call home is a universal desire, not just for humans but for animals, too. A series of heartwarming photos posted on Instagram shows the journey of a Thai rescue dog named Snickers as she embraces her new home and finds her perfect cozy spot.
Owner shares photos of rescue dog adjusting to new home
The Instagram account @samui_snickers — managed by Snickers’ new American owners — recently shared delightful snapshots of the dog settling into her new environment. The post details Snickers’ travels and the new experiences she encountered while moving to her forever home. With a cheerful tone, the post recounts how Snickers charmed flight attendants and fellow travelers during her journey, with her constant tail-wagging and friendly greetings.
Since her arrival, Snickers has been busy exploring every nook and cranny of her new home. As per the post, she seems particularly thrilled about the prospect of further adventures in the vast outdoors surrounding her new abode. The post also expresses gratitude to those who made the pup’s journey possible, including her rescuer Niall Harbison and the nonprofit organization Happy Doggo.
Harbison — who is the founder and CEO of Happy Doggo — originally shared Snickers’ story on social media, describing her endearing quirks and generous spirit. Harbison shared how Snickers would greet him each morning with a gift, often an item she found nearby, as a token of gratitude for the food and medicine she received. Her consistent acts of kindness made her stand out among the many street dogs Harbison cared for, ultimately leading to her rescue and rehoming.
Snickers’ new family, who Harbison says is “the best fit,” had visited her during a trip and immediately connected with her. Now, Snickers has a loving family and a spacious garden near Washington to call her own, an outcome that Harbison celebrates as “a beautiful outcome for a kind girl.”
