Earlier this year, a photo of a German shepherd sleeping in a hole she dug out near a headstone in a cemetery spread across the web as a testament to a dog’s loving tribute to her former owner.
But as touching as that story is, the truth behind the viral photo is so much more heartbreaking…but don’t worry, there is a happy ending at the end of this dog’s tale.
But after investigation, people discovered she had simply found a safe place to protect her puppies.
All of the cuties received the medical and emotional care they clearly needed.
They’ve been able to grow, play, and have a happy life in their new setting.

Stories like these are so often overlooked by the sensational response they provoke from one image. Thank goodness someone investigated it further to find a better life for the sweet pooches.
