Huffington Post: Shy Shelter Dog's Reaction To Getting Adopted Is The Definition Of Joy On Earth

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/shelter-dog-adoption-video_567acc41e4b0b958f658dddf?cps=gravity_2425_4417147447488333866

A shy shelter dog turned into a jumping, tail-wagging bundle of joy when he was adopted by a loving family.

Benny, an 8-month-old pit bull, was one of the dogs at the high-kill Carson Animal Care Shelter in Los Angeles. On Dec. 10, the little pup got the surprise of a lifetime when he found his forever home.

His response was all sorts of precious.

Visit the Carson Animal Care Shelter's website to see more animals available for adoption now.
