It’s always heartbreaking when dogs are surrendered to shelters by their owners. These dogs are upended from the only home they’ve never known, confused about why they’re in these new surroundings without their familiar family.
That’s what one video shows, after a dog was surrendered by his family after 2 years — but beneath the heartbreak, there is hope.
Last month, a dog named Carlton was surrendered to Special Pals animal shelter in Houston, Texas, by the owners he had been with for 2 years.
Shelter director Becky French posted a video of the 2-year-old mixed breed dog on TikTok, showing Carlton’s heartbreak and confusion in his first day at the shelter.


“He doesn’t understand where his person went,” Becky wrote. “He kept returning to the spot his owner sat with him before leaving.”
The video also shows the dog refusing to take a treat or even look at the staff. he is scared. Confused,” Becky wrote. “This is what your dog goes through when they go back to a shelter.”
Despite the heartbreak, Becky wrote that they were able to “get some happy moments” out of the surrendered dog, and hope that he finds a new forever home soon.
“Don’t worry buddy. You are safe and will find a new home someday.”
It’s always a rough transition, but there are signs that Carlton — now known as “Posty” is acclimating well to shelter life. In a follow-up video, Becky said that they learned he is “obsessed with balls,” and he can be seen happily playing with shelter staff.
Despite the heartbreak he went through, he has improved and is “a happy boy now,” Becky wrote.
He is still up for adoption and waiting for a home — if you are interested in adopting, you can reach out to Special Pals via their adoption page.
Becky also shared an Amazon wish list for anyone who wants to buy an item for Carlton/Posty, which includes many of his favorite balls.
It’s heartbreaking to see this sweet dog surrendered to the shelter, suddenly losing the only home he’s ever known, but we hope that Carlton/Posty finds a great new home soon.

It doesn’t seem possible, but nearly twelve years ago, in 2012, the icon announced his retirement from touring. After selling more than 100 million records worldwide, he was slowing down.
espite retiring from touring, the “Check Yes or No” singer continues to break records. His fans are having no trouble deciding whether to “Check Yes or No” when it comes to his June 15 concert at Kyle Field in College Station, Texas.

Announced on March 19, fans flocked to buy tickets. In fact, more than 100,000 tickets have already been sold. That makes this concert on track to break Strait’s already set all-time attendance record of 104,793 that he recorded in 2014 at AT & T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Kyle Field is one of the largest capacity stadiums in college football, which will make breaking his own record quite achievable.
The concert being dubbed as ‘The King at Kyle Field’ will be arranged so that the entire stage can be surrounded by fans

With 33 Platinum and Multi-platinum albums, Strait won’t have any trouble filling the stadium with sing along songs for his adoring fans.
Apparently, the Cowboy hasn’t Ridden Away quite yet. When the King announces a concert, his fans come alive. We may not be seeing him grace the stages of the awards shows, but without a question, his music is known and loved by droves.
