Senior Pit Bull Helps Woman Heal After Heartache (VIDEO)

Mr. Mo Project mends broken hearts by finding homes for senior dogs.

Vicky Neville and her tenderhearted bull dogs did not always have it easy. After years of heartache and enduring the loss of three bull dogs, recovering from divorce and witnessing the passing of her sister and soulmate, Vicky was admitted into inpatient care for her chronic depression. While in recovery, she heard about the Mr. Mo Project, a non-profit organization that finds loving homes for senior dogs.

On Easter Sunday, Mr. Mo Project founders,Chris and Mariesa Hughes showed up at Vicky’s house with Macy, a senior bull dog. Vicky and Macy connected instantly and before Vicky knew it, her life began to change. She found herself living life again, laughing, gardening, and rediscovering the parts of her day that made her truly happy, all with her new companion by her side. We all know that shelter dogs need our love, but sometimes it’s the unconditional love from a dog that can make all the difference to its owner.
