Twitter just came together beautifully to save a dog whose owner suddenly passed away
Stories like this make us believe in humanity again. Twitter just came together beautifully to save a dog, Noni, whose owner suddenly passed away. Of course, this reminds us of when Twitter helped Cory Booker save a freezing dog, as The Atlantic had reported.
The recent feel-good dog story all started with one tweet from Sara Morrison. She’s the neighbor of the man who died, which left his dog homeless. Sara took to her 5,000ish Twitter followers for help, proving that you never know what the power of one tweet will do.
Here was the tweet that started it all.

We are in Southern NJ. Our 11.5yr old Scottish Terrier just died two months ago. Maybe we can help.

I'm in Brooklyn. What's happening here? I can take him.

Over 5,000 people liked Sara’s tweet and more than 3,000 people retweeted it to find Noni a new home — and it worked!

Yup, in less than 24 hours, Noni had new owners and a new place to live! Ahhh-mazing!

And we agree with this sentiment!
What a nice ending to such a sad story. They look like a kind and wonderful couple.

Big props to Carmen and Chandler, too, OF COURSE!
Btw, it definitely looks like Noni is getting used to her new home.

Awwww. Now that we have all these #DogFeels, we’re going to go cuddle with our dogs, and you should do the same!
