Sadly, the Lab mix didn’t know that his owner had died and he will never see him again. All Moose knew was that he needed to be patient and wait for his loving human to come back. The picture of the loyal dog staring at the hospital window was the saddest sight ever and it took the Internet by storm.

Employees at both NorthStar Pet Rescue and Eleventh Hour Rescue knew that Moose deserved to find a new family that would help him move on with his life. They posted the photo on social media and it immediately went viral.

They believed that whoever sees Moose’s picture would realize how happy they would be if he becomes part of their families, as his loyalty is a huge part of his personality.

The heartbreaking photo made people think deeply about what happens with an animal when their owner passes away. Although they are animals, they still have feelings and can sometimes be even more compassionate than humans.

Although animals can’t speak, they express their feelings in other ways. Their actions speak of their grief better than any language, and Moose is just the perfect example of that.

Dog owners know that the dog’s love and loyalty for humans have no boundaries. Be there for your pet until you have the chance. After all, you are there for the most part of their lives!

After Moose’s photo was posted, he ended up at a local pet rescue shelter in Rockaway Township, New Jersey.
