15 year old dying dog lives to see his precious human get married
In a small town in New York, a heartwarming story began when Kelly O’Connell, a caring 19-year-old who worked at a local animal shelter, discovered Charlie the Bear, a small puppy stuck in a shopping cart. She had no idea that their lives would become forever linked.
Fast forward 15 years, and Kelly is now a veterinarian planning her wedding with James Gavin in Colorado. But there’s a twist: Charlie, her loyal dog, is struggling with a serious brain condition. Just a week before the wedding, Kelly faced the heartbreaking decision of saying goodbye to him.
Heartbreak turned into hope when, unexpectedly, Charlie started to get better. Against all odds, he not only made it to the wedding but also seemed full of energy. Wedding photographer Jen Dziuvenis captured the touching moments between Kelly, James, and Charlie beautifully.
“There aren’t enough mascaras in the world for times like these,” Jen said. “This is what love looks like – a caring family and love for animals. It’s the most touching thing I’ve ever seen.”
A week after seeing his favorite humans get married, Charlie peacefully said goodbye, leaving a lasting impression on Kelly and James. Looking back on their time together, Kelly said, “It’s been an extraordinary 15 years. That’s for sure.”
