Overlooked 130-Pound Shelter Dog Experiences the Comfort of a Home for the 1st Time Ever

Meet Cosmo, an endearing Saint Bernard whose journey hasn’t been a walk in the park.

Born into a breeder’s care in Nebraska, Cosmo’s life took an unexpected turn when he was surrendered to the Hearts United for Animals shelter.

The reasons behind this decision remain a mystery.

Despite the sudden change in his circumstances, Cosmo remained a friendly and affable companion to the shelter staff, even though he was visibly bewildered by his new surroundings.

The shelter staff, eager to find Cosmo a loving home, posted his profile on a pet adoption site.

It was here that a woman named Jayne and her husband stumbled upon Cosmo’s story.

The couple was instantly smitten with the charming Saint Bernard and decided to welcome him into their family.

Living in upstate New York, Jayne was undeterred by the distance.

She hopped on a plane to Nebraska, rented a car, and prepared to drive Cosmo back to his new home.

Upon arriving in Nebraska, Jayne was anxious about her first meeting with Cosmo.

She feared they might not connect, but her worries were quickly dispelled.

The bond between Jayne and Cosmo was immediate.

Jayne said, “I don’t know if Cosmo has any understanding of what’s happening, but I think he understands there’s a human here who wants to give him some love and he’s pretty happy about it.”

The following morning marked the beginning of their long journey back to New York.

The shelter staff bid a bittersweet farewell to Cosmo, their sadness tempered by the knowledge that he was going to a loving home.

Initially, Cosmo was apprehensive about getting into the car, but he soon figured it out and settled down.

The drive from Nebraska to New York went smoothly, with Cosmo spending most of his time resting in the back of the car.

Jayne allowed Cosmo to explore his new surroundings at his own pace.

The curious pup ambled around the living room, sniffing the armchairs and even stopping to greet Jayne’s giant rabbit.

Jayne observed, “It’s nice to see him on a big space, see him spread out and put his belly on a cool floor, and just know he’s finally staying in a space, a place where can feel happy and comfortable.”

Cosmo’s new family extended beyond his canine siblings.

A few months have passed since Cosmo joined Jayne’s family, and he’s thriving in his new environment.

Surrounded by a loving family and fellow pets, Cosmo has truly come out of his shell.

Reflecting on Cosmo’s journey, Jayne said, “Animals just understand life a little bit better than people sometimes.

It’s like they know what’s important, and if they have love and food and a roof over their heads, that’s all that really matters.”

Cosmo, the sweet Saint Bernard, has finally found a place he can call home.
