Those baby tortoises are so cute!! They're so little!

[@cnoinfo3928]

I work owner surrender cases for a rescue specializing in senior dogs and in my experience people don’t give up their senior pups without a good reason. Deaths, nursing home, financial and health changes. I’ve taken 3 of my own fosters into care directly from their owners and it was horrifically difficult on all of those owners. Watching those goodbyes is not something you can forget and it broke my heart to see every time. But they made the decision to put their dogs needs first when they realized they could no longer care for them properly. It might seem horrible to give up a senior dog but to me it’s an act of love to put their needs first.

People dump their parents like this too. Old folks homes . When their parent needs them, they don’t want the responsibility to care for them any more.

I'm so glad she was able to take Arnie, she's the perfect dog mom.

and to think that those tortoise hatchlings may outlive everyone in this comment section right now. They may one day be examined by a vet whose parents probably aren't yet conceived themselves. Amazing how long these reptiles, small as they are, can live.

I kinda feel like Scott and Ali are platonic soul mates. Whenever they are together on the show, it's clear that they have a deep bond.

[@sherkylady7765]

Hilarious how Scott (and others) keep talking to Arnie knowing he’s completely deaf.

[@whitneythiher6021]

My dog got dumped twice. I'm his third owner. I got him when he was 2.5 years old. He will be 5 in October. He has been through a lot in his short life and will live the rest of it in bliss.

That women got a heart off gold so glad it all turned out brilliantly

[@jroar123]

I once worked as an animal control officer (dog catcher). I couldn’t do the job because it just broke my heart having perfectly good animals destroyed because nobody was trying to get them adopted. When I tried, I ended getting in trouble so I quit. It was the hardest job I had ever done and I can’t believe how cold and cruel the county was and how mean people can be.

[@HowDeeDo]

I flippin cried when Arnie bowed to Mable!! So precious!!!! Made my day and I needed a pick me up😁

[@remruna3538]

Arnie, stiff as a board until he saw Mable.... then all of a sudden he's a puppy again. If that's not the sweetest thing ever I dont know.

[@neosunrider]

I love this episode. :)

[@Lady_Bird_420]

I'm soooo happy for Ali ! I remember when her dog got sick...my heart broke for her. Then she got Mabel and I thought YEA !!! , but then when she saw Arnie, at first you could see that she was almost to scared to let her heart fall for him because what if he had cancer....but then when the results came back negative.....and then the meet and greet with Molly went sooo well! So happy for her.

[@pibly7784]

Those old mini tortoises were awesome- and that egg shaped incubator was so cute ! Great outcome for precious Arnie.

[@marionjanusz4077]

Actuallly the older tortoises breed and produce more eggs than the younger ones do!

[@mariegarr6199]

I knew Allie would fall in love with Arnie. So did Mable. What a beautiful ending to a sad start.

[@annoyingbananana]

"They'll be examined by a vet who isn't even born yet" had me dying! XD

[@anneramsey6403]

I’m a home dog boarder and one of my clients turned up one day and asked if I knew anyone that wanted a dog. I asked her what dog and she looked down at Motts and said “him, he gets on my nerves”. He was 14. We had the best two years with him and I’ve had a lot of dogs and I can honestly say he was the best dog I’d ever owned. I wish I’d had him when he was younger but I did have the pleasure of looking after him when his owner was on holiday. I will never understand how anyone can choose to give up there dogs.

Awww the new veterinarian is ADORABLE 😍 and great at her job!
