Drew Harrisberg, while looking to adopt a dog at a local shelter, was drawn to a talkative Pit Bull mix named Dennis, who was already scheduled for adoption by someone else.

Intrigued by Dennis’s unusual squealing, Drew decided to foster him for two weeks before his adoption.


Despite warnings from the shelter about getting attached, Drew fell deeply in love with Dennis’s chatty nature. When it was time to return Dennis, Drew was so enamored that he pleaded with the new owners to let him keep the dog.

The outcome of Drew’s plea is revealed in a heartwarming video.
