So many abandoned dogs roam the streets these days, helpless and lost, left to survive on their own by those they once trusted with everything.
What’s even harder to bear is that, instead of lending a hand to these innocent souls, most people simply look the other way.
Thankfully, there are still compassionate souls who go out of their way to make a difference—even stepping out of their cars to give these furry friends a second chance.
That’s just what happened in Los Angeles one August day when a kind-hearted man saw three tiny puppies wandering on the freeway and couldn’t leave them behind.
With the help of his caring wife, these little ones were rescued from the streets and given a chance to find their happy endings.
Adorable Little Pups
On August 7, 2024, a woman named Viv shared a TikTok video on her account, @vivianaaae, capturing a heartfelt rescue mission of three abandoned puppies on the streets of Los Angeles.
The video opens with a view of the front of her husband’s car in motion, but it’s the words on the screen that truly draw us in.
“There are three puppies running on the freeway. I have to save them,” her husband says. Viv’s supportive reply comes across with so much warmth: “Save them, babe. We’ll figure out the rest when you get home.”
Though we don’t see the actual rescue unfold, the next scene shows her husband arriving home, parking in the garage with the three rescued pups huddled beside him in the passenger seat. This single moment speaks volumes, showing the compassion that brought these three little ones from danger to safety.
In the video, the three puppies appear to be of different, likely mixed breeds. Two of them look understandably frightened, while one seems more at ease, already cozying up to his rescuer as if he knows he’s safe.
Soon after, we see the trio in their new backyard in Los Angeles, California, joyfully playing—a perfect display of the love and care these two kind-hearted people have given them.
The video wraps up with a sweet moment of the puppies having a great time with their new friend, a Doberman named Canelo.
“I’ll never understand how people can just dump these sweet babies. They’re safe now and will forever be taken care of,” Viv wrote in the caption, showing her commitment to their wellbeing—a promise that, thankfully, will be kept.
A Fresh Start for Each Pup
The day after the rescue video, Viv shared an update, showing the three pups happily settling into their new surroundings.
Then, on August 21, she posted a more meaningful update. Alongside a photo of the three together, she announced that each of them was about to start a new chapter in life, one filled with love and fresh beginnings.
In her caption, Viv shared that while they couldn’t keep all three puppies, each one found a loving forever home.
“The little one on the far right went to my boyfriend’s high school friend, who has a big yard and a Labrador who needed a sibling. He named him Country Boy.
The pup in the middle went to an old friend of mine from high school. She has a spacious backyard and was looking for a companion for her fur baby. She named him Maverick.
We kept the sweet one on the left. His name is Po, and he’s already loving his new home and his big brother, Canelo!” Viv wrote.
In the end, this heartwarming journey found its happiest ending, all thanks to two kind souls who couldn’t look away from these three helpless pups, even when everyone else did.
