This Puppy Love story will melt your heart

Ben, a 4-year-old rescued stray, walked 10 miles to find his mate, another shelter dog named Jade.


“They were a bonded pair,” said Charles Brown, manager of the Terre Haute Humane Shelter. After their puppies had been adopted, Ben was then adopted by a family who only wanted one dog.

According to The Tribune-Star, Courtney and Jason Lawler felt the 1-year-old Jade was too skittish to be around their young child. What Ben did next was amazing.

After about three weeks, he found a way to escape when the trash was being taken out. Trekking  10 miles in cold weather, he found his way back to the Terre Haute Humane Shelter within 24 hours. Rescue workers say he then ran to Jade's pen and "kissed" her through the pen.

He eluded shelter workers who tried to catch him; they believe Jade was warning him somehow as Ben knew they were trying to trap him. They did finally catch him a couple of days later. Ben and Jade were “visibly happy to see each other, barking and wagging their tales,” Brown told the Tribune Star.

 Not wanting to separate the pair, the Lawlers adopted Jade too. The couple spoke to media about their dogs. "They show utter devotion to each other like my wife and I do," Jason Lawler told NBC News 2. "They go on walks together, and stay together at all times," said Courtney Lawler. "They do have the humanlike qualities. They do have emotions."

His most publicized rescue is Fiona -- be warned -- there might be tears on this one.
