If I had a million dollars, I would rescue an abundance of dogs and provide them with the idyllic lives that every pup dreams of. Devoid of loneliness and hunger, these furry friends would indulge in enriching experiences each day. Despite the dedication of animal shelter volunteers and rescue workers in pampering the pets under their care, the distress and sorrow of being surrendered remain a formidable challenge to combat.
On the 11th of February, renowned dog rescuer @ellenlazanne took to TikTok to introduce her followers to Fiona, a 1.5-year-old Great Pyrenees mix who found herself surrendered due to a mischievous mishap. It was reported that Fiona had been caught nibbling on an item that belonged to the boyfriend of the individual who brought her in for surrender. True dog aficionados understand that the value of their furry companions far exceeds that of any material possession, regardless of its ownership. Understandably, viewers were deeply moved to witness this sweet dog finding herself in a rescue scenario; however, Ellen remains resolute in her mission to secure a forever home where Fiona will be treasured endlessly.
Doesn’t Fiona look like an absolute gem? Resembling a blend of a Great Pyrenees and a Labrador Retriever, she embodies the best of both breeds. With the Lab’s affable and laid-back demeanor and the Pyr’s devoted and protective nature, this mixed-breed canine is truly a remarkable combination. Whether one seeks a companion for outdoor adventures, a loyal member of the family, or a helping hand on the farm, the fortunate individual who adopts Fiona is bound to be graced with immense luck!

Naturally, TikTok audiences had much to express regarding the couple who made the decision to part ways with this magnificent canine companion. As @deafdogfinn rightly pointed out, “Boyfriends may come and go, but dogs are forever.” Precisely! A rescue dog will shower you with unconditional love, even during moments of mischief. After all, numerous dog breeds, such as the Great Pyrenees, thrive when given a sense of purpose. Fiona’s penchant for chewing may have stemmed from boredom or restlessness, yet fortunately, her ordeal has now come to an end.
Welcoming a Rescue Dog into Your Home demands patience and optimism above all. The transition can prove to be a substantial adjustment for both you and your new furry friend! Initially, your rescue dog might feel somewhat apprehensive about engaging; however, with time, they will familiarize themselves with the ins and outs of their new routine. By the three-month mark, your rescue dog will have acclimated and truly begun to feel at home!
