\u201c[S]he definitely misses having a sibling to cuddle with \u2026\u201d<\/h2>\n
\n

\n

Last November, a group of shelter workers in Oklahoma, were gearing up for the holiday season when they unexpectedly welcomed a pair of stray dogs. The experienced rescuers were used to saving multiple animals at a time, but these two had a stronger bond than most.<\/p>\n

The two heeler mixes, later named Bonnie and Clyde, went everywhere together. They were grateful for the love and care of their new caregivers, but they really thrived in each other\u2019s company.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

After receiving clean bills of health, Bonnie and Clyde\u2019s caregivers started advertising them for adoption. Within a few days, a family fell in love with Clyde and decided to take him home \u2014 but no one showed up for Bonnie.<\/p>\n

Later that night, the heartbroken girl curled up on her empty bed and burrowed her head in sadness.<\/p>\n

\u201cBonnie is all alone since her brother got adopted,\u201d the shelter wrote on Facebook. \u201c[S]he definitely misses having a sibling to cuddle with \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The rescue team watched as Bonnie became more and more depressed each day. They made sure to shower her with loving affirmations and include her in fun events, like their local Christmas parade, but there was still something missing.<\/p>\n

Nobody was showing interest in adopting her, and the sweet girl\u2019s caregivers couldn\u2019t understand why.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe loves kids and doesn\u2019t seem to mind other dogs,\u201d volunteer Jennifer Eshelman Doty wrote in a Facebook comment after taking Bonnie to the Christmas parade. \u201cShe walked on-leash [perfectly] at the parade \u2026 She is 100 percent [a] good girl!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

After one particularly lonely night, shelter staff shared a picture of Bonnie alone on her bed, hoping this plea for help would get more attention than the others they\u2019d already posted of her. They were overjoyed when a loving dog mom arrived the next morning asking to adopt Bonnie.<\/p>\n

\u201cUPDATE: [SHE WAS] ADOPTED RIGHT AT OPENING ON MONDAY MORNING,\u201d the shelter wrote in a Facebook comment.<\/p>\n

The team wished Bonnie a tearful goodbye, and they waved as she set off to meet the rest of her new family.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Bonnie, renamed Ember, now lives with her mom, Brayden Routh, and an older sister, Tally, who looks just like her. She\u2019s so excited to have a sibling again, having found the same love in Tally that she once had with Clyde.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey became instant best friends,\u201d Routh told The Dodo. \u201cIt really couldn\u2019t have worked out any better than it did.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

With a doting mom and an awesome big sister by her side, Ember is feeling happier than ever. She\u2019s beyond grateful to have found her dream family, and her mom feels the exact same way.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe has been the perfect addition to my life!\u201d Routh said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
