Bonded dogs were so neglected they looked like mops — wait to see what they look like now. Our producer Chelsi sent them matching shark vests so they could learn how to swim! We are celebrating Hispanic/Latinx Heritage Month with stories like Laura, Noel & Chuy's!

00:00Come on, baby chiquita.
00:02They look like a raggedy mop.
00:04An elderly man had two dogs that he could no longer keep.
00:08Two babies.
00:09Two babies.
00:10You want more?
00:12I knew I had to take them home.
00:13I couldn't leave them there anymore.
00:15They were completely mated.
00:17They had blocks of dirt.
00:19It's OK.
00:20It's OK.
00:21Good boys.
00:23When I brought them home, I let them roam in the garage.
00:26Good boy.
00:29Hey, baby.
00:30I was able to touch Chewy enough to uncover his face.
00:35It was really sad.
00:36I cried there because I'm like, baby, you are so beautiful.
00:39I know you are so beautiful under there.
00:41It's just this mess.
00:43It's going to be OK.
00:44That's what you are.
00:45You're beautiful.
00:46Come on, baby.
00:47You're so pretty.
00:49There is a great rescuer who is also a groomer.
00:53So she came to my home, and she started grooming those puppies.
00:57It took her probably about two hours.
01:02After they got finished with the groom, you can tell that they were ecstatic.
01:07Come on, Chewy.
01:09Come on, baby.
01:11Oh, yes, yes.
01:20One thing I decided to do is see if they would like to swim
01:24because all my other dogs like the pool.
01:27Good boy.
01:28Our friends at the Doros sent us a couple of life jackets for Noel and Chewy
01:32so they could swim in the pool, and they love it.
01:35Come on, Noel.
01:38Come on, Noel.
01:40Good boy.
01:42Good boy.
01:44After we put the vest on them, they knew that they were going to be OK.
01:55You're so cute.
01:57You're so cute.
02:00They look like little sharks.
02:01They were so cute on the pool.
02:04Come on.
02:05Come on.
02:06Come on.
02:07Sit.
02:08Sit.
02:09Sit.
02:10We were able to find Noel and Chewy a lovely home with a nice family,
02:16and we were so lucky that she adopted them together.
02:20These two dogs, they were bonded, and they found the best family,
02:23and they are living the best life.
02:31We just experienced a very bad hurricane here in the Houston area.
02:36DNA Animal Rescue, they have also suffered damages on their property
02:41that affected the dogs, and we really, really depend on the support of the public
02:45to continue saving all these animals.
02:48We really, really need the public support.
02:53Chewy and Noel came from such a bad situation, and the transformation is amazing.
