More and more animals are getting abandoned with each passing day all around the world, and the numbers are increasing even faster due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The lockdown has had more than several people abandoning their pets, be it due to the fact that the owners have passed away or the fact that they couldn’t take care of them anymore because of some unfortunate circumstances.
However, not all such stories have sad endings. Recently, TikTok user Ashton Hart came to find out that his grandfather whom he hadn’t seen in 6 years had passed away from Covid-19. Ashton was shocked by the news, but was also concerned whether or not his grandfather had any pets that might’ve gotten left behind.
His gut feeling proved to be true as he found out that his grandfather indeed had a dog, and without thinking any further, Hart and his partner went over to get him. When they visited his grandfather’s house, they found an obese dog, now named Oat Milk Latte, who was scheduled to be put down due to the fact that he was left alone and had a lot of health complications.
