Left behind by his owner - scared and confused 😞

I will never know what happened to Klaus' owner, but if we learned anything in the past year, it is that life is so fragile and things can change in an instant.
Every month, we are asked to help pets find loving forever homes after their owners passed away unexpectedly and no instructions were left for the care of their pets. Many of these pets end up in shelters or just thrown out to the streets... they are scared, confused, and can't believe how their world turned upside down because their owner didn't come home.
In order to prevent sad cases like this, #HopeForPaws partnered with #FreeWill to help you take care of your pets, loved ones, and your favorite charities.
Please click here to create your own Will for FREE: www.FreeWill.c...
I know this can be a scary thing to think about, but dealing with it for 20 minutes now will give you peace of mind that your dog will not end up like Klaus.
In just 2 days we will celebrate Hope For Paws' 13th anniversary, and I really hope all of you will do this for your pets - that would be the best gift!
If you would like to adopt Klaus and give him an amazing home, please contact our friends at #LAAnimalRescue - they will handle his adoption: www.LAAR.org
Thank you so much! ❤️

Awe...his owner probably passed away. Poor baby, I Pray you fine him a loving furever home. God Bless

Truly there is a special place in heaven reserved for all the people that help rescue and care for these animals. God Bless you all.

[@kathyjones1576]

He looked healthy, so I think something happened to his dad. Maybe he was in an accident? Poor dog, he must be so confused. 😔 I'm glad you found him and he's learning to be happy again. ❤️

It is a crime, and it should be punished....

[@riderstrong6397]

@@ac8907 News Flash. The dog looked to be in relative good health and weight with no fleas in his unfortunate situation. The Homeless owner mostly likely had one of three things that might have happened. (1) he is in a hospital. (2) he is in jail. (3) he has died. Pick one.

[@mikelouis9389]

@@ac8907 You might need to be able to curse souls. This feels like the owner passed away. That poor dog seems like he was the pet of a kind owner. Alone and poor is only a crime attributable to society.

[@purrrrson]

I can't believe how many, 'left behind by owner' videos there are. This pandemic has caused so much hardship and chaos for so many. I hope things go back to what they were. Unfortunately, many are now out of work, have had to close their businesses. So sad! Thank goodness for rescuers, like yourselves!! Thank you!!

[@anng.4542]

It's also important to contact the police when someone "disappears" like this dog's owner did. Friends or family maybe missing the person and the police may be able to determine whether they are hospitalized or, worst case scenario, passed away.

[@lauralopes3917]

I thought the same. He wouldn't live his "home behind" and just disappear out of the blue. I think something happened to him. I feel sad when I see people judging him without knowing

[@lauralopes3917]

Leave*

[@tats763]

I agree. I'm not sure how long Klaus was alone, but he looked healthy. Take into account the state of the RV, his owner clearly cared more for the dog than himself.

[@Pizzpott]

That is a very good point. I mean this doggie looked well taken care of to me.

[@anng.4542]

@@buchiklop110 In the US, should an unconscious or severely injured person be admitted to a hospital, or an unidentified body be brought to the municipal morgue, police won't automatically investigate unless someone, usually a relative, notifies them that a family member is missing.

I have a small chihuahua puppy foster now. She is like a tornado and and a piranha combined! Ha! Adorable and she is learning new things every day. I have fostered over 40 dogs. I beg anyone who loves animals to foster if you have the time and means. And don’t use that tired old excuse that you will get too attached. For heavens sakes, what is a short time of hurting your own feelings in relation to the joy of saving an animal’s life and sending them on to a forever home.

Zero back story but you’re so angry. Owner may have died, been arrested, had to leave town running for their life in a domestic violence situation, who knows. They were living in a metal box for goodness sake, safe to say they may have been poor, disenfranchised. We don’t know.
