Hearts are melting over a couple's decision to adopt and welcome home not one, not two, but three senior dogs in one day.
This couple is no stranger to bringing rescue senior dogs into their home, but many people who adopt don't give a senior pet a chance. Their age and possible health conditions are a deterrent. But not for this couple.
The first senior dog they adopted unfortunately passed a few months ago. They still have Charlie, who is 7 and now, they brought in three more Chihuahuas to the mix. The two girls, Lily and Missy, are 8 years old and Buddy is 10.

Viewers can see in the February 3 TikTok video, which was shared by user @adventuresofcharlie.taco, that the new dogs adjusted very quickly to their new home. The owner wrote that they had a long day of interaction and playing, followed by relaxing and cuddling up next to the fire. Now, all four dogs will get to live out their golden years together as a family.
...
The most amazing part about this couple rescuing three dogs is that they adopted them on the same day. The three probably enjoyed having the others by their side during the transition period from the shelter. Although, it did not take them long to feel cozy in their new home.
Adopting an animal is already viewed as one of the most selfless acts one can do. But three? They're single-handedly tackling the low adoption rates and helping make room in shelters for more dogs. Well, they aren't actually solving the nationwide problem, but their commitment to adopting dogs surely doesn't go unnoticed.
The adorable clip had over 44,200 views, 5,120 likes, and 349 comments as of Wednesday. Most of the comments included people applauding the couple's kind act.
One comment reads: "They are at peace and comfortable. Thank you." Their final years will be filled with joy instead of the confines of an animal shelter.
"Just some little old men peacefully living out the rest of their days in comfort," added another. All animals deserve a life like this.
"Three dogs in one day? Oh, you found heaven," wrote one viewer.
A third said: "Best sleep they ever had! Welcome home." There will be more comfortable sleeps like that coming their way!
