Last Update:

Undoubtedly, one’s dog is certainly the best of friends you can have. However, as we are continuously exposed to many dog stories on social media, some of them tend to be rather sad, especially the ones revolving around homeless dogs. Thankfully, most of these stories get a happy ending, with the poor pups getting adopted after all their struggles.

Today, we’d love to share the story of Coco, a charming little dog who unfortunately fell into the hands of bad people.
