- Zuzu, a two-year-old German Shepard mix, who lit up when she spotted her owners at the animal shelter in December, has found a new home. Her story went viral after her original owners ditched Zuzu because she was too depressed and they wanted a happier new dog. Diana Edwards who volunteers with Pet Adoption Fund told Inside Edition: "we had so many inquiries about her." Zuzu has been given a new family. Russ and Judith Gallo have adopted the heartbroken dog and want to give it a new life. #InsideEdition
She doesn't seem that depressed... must have been the original Owners
Mel Diaz the other dog the couple had died and she became depressed
***** yup
Mel Diaz ikr the dog probably looked depressed cuz the owners were boring
Mel Diaz
***** I know that and those people were idiots, but I was just giving the person an answer
Owners: She is too depressed.
Zuzu: *barking and wagging tail in depression*

They shouldn't have been able to adopt another animal, if they don't care enough to stick with them.
From what I've heard, the shelter would not allow the family to adopt another dog.
@@720069mf so glad to hear that! When the new dog didn't suit their purpose anymore they would dump that one off too
That’s what I thought I can’t believe they got to adopt another dog!
@@Lynn-zx3th They didn't. The shelter refused to let them adopt another animal.
I think the situation is a bit more nuanced than this...for example, when I was 3, our family adopted adopted a dog, but it didn't really work out, he spent months pooping everywhere, would bite me and my sister, and we knew we weren't qualified enough to give him the life that he deserved, so we gave him away to an older lady who loves that type of dog, and gave him a very happy, amazing life. A year later, we adopted another dog, who was amazing and who's been with us happily ever since...the thing is, if you know you're not going to be able to care for a dog, or you won't be happy with them(and caring for them will feel like a chore, something dogs pick up on and actually become depressed about) giving them away is actually the right choice. With today's dog adoption scene, they wouldn't remain homeless for long, and they would find a family that would actually love them. I do agree that visiting the same shelter just a few months later was a bit senseless though.
Why would they let the previous “owners” adopt another dog? Disgusting
They didn't. I saw that specific video. They turned that couple away.

That’s makes me cry thinking about it
Why did the shelter even let those creeps adopt ANOTHER dog to complain about?
@@acmcbride-olson9320 the shelter refused to let them adopt from what people say

“She was too sad, we wanted a happier dog” horrible people.
If I had them for family, I'd be depressed too!
@@Wayniesgirl Agreed
And they believed leaving her at a shelter would make Zuzu happy? Goodness!
I believe it's entirely possible that the whole "depression" thing was a made up story and there was perhaps some other reason. When I volunteered in an animal shelter, people returned animals they'd adopted and they made up some of the craziest reasons you could possibly imagine.
Your a horrible person if you eat meat
The reason that dog was probably depressed as they said why they gave her up was probably because the owners were not very nice people. Shame on them for not taking care of this dog and giving it a good home. Just happy to know there was somebody out there who did care. God bless you.
The dog depressed because the other dog had died
@@kurniasandi2097 It was the couple who adopted her the second time who's dog had just died, not her original idiot owners who didn't know how to care for her. Apparently according to other comments I've seen a member of their family passed away & Zuzu was mourning them but instead of being understanding & helping her they decided to get rid of her for a new dog. If I worked at the Shelter I would have told them where to go, if they couldn't take the time to look after Zuzu what gives people the idea they'll care about any other pet they own. What happens if this dog isn't 'perfect' guess it's back to the Shelter 🙄 they don't deserve the love of animals!
Shame on the shelter for letting them adopt another one
The dog was most likely banished to the back yard either chained or penned which is why she was depressed.
they probably didnt play/walk the dog enough thats a common reason for dogs to seem depressed or bored
let's put her original owners in a shelter. ✌👽
Alice InCrazyLand Let's ban them from pets store, animal shelters and other animal place. They don't deserve another dog after what they did to ZuZu
Let's just hope they don't tire of the new pet and trade it in too. What disgusting people. The shelter should not allowed them to have the second dog.
At least, they should've visited another shelter instead of walking right pass emotional Zuzu. Some humans have low EQ problem, I guess.
Alice InCrazyLand SEND THEM TO N.KOREA.LOL
Alice InCrazyLand hopefully the shelter didn't let them adopt a dog
They shouldn't have let those old owners adopt another dog. They don't deserve it.
ateiluj08 I agree. If they can abandon one dog like that they will do it again. They don't deserve to get another rescue dog or pet at all.
Good news.. The people didn't let the owner adopt another dog and they were declined😀😄
@@brax7472 Thank you for posting. Those people deserted their dog when it needed their help the most. So sad, glad Zuzu got a wonderful home. Seems recovered and happy now.
They didn't allow them to get another dog and I hope they gave all other shelters a picture and a description of them so they couldn't adopt another animal in that area. Those heartless pricks don't even deserve to have a pet goldfish much less another dog or other kind of animal.
@@Shayne42069 Thank you guys for the good news
I seriously wish someone would "accidentally leak" the owners who gave zuzu up in the first place
I'm sure you're not alone in thinking that:)
You needa change that pic bucko

My dog was depressed a week after bringing her home, I tried everything to get her to be happy. I even got a puppy for her so that while I'm at work she had someone to keep her company. Now she is happier than ever. Imagine giving up a dog for being too depressed, yea that's something, let's give her away instead of figuring out how to help her.
Right?! Our boxer was so depressed after our first one passed away that she refused to eat. She was so incredibly sad. We brought home another boxer and she was just fine again. Had a playmate and was happy… I could never leave my dog at a shelter. No way. They’re family.
I was heartbroken when I heard about Zuzu's story. I'm glad she found real loving owners!
Heidi Garcia Me too but it sounds like they did allow her original owners to adopt another dog. I feel sorry for that dog...they're liable to become tired of it over time!
It’s so cold hearted. Like you WONDER why she’s so depressed.
@@Shellross65 right on the spot .
When the towers came down on 9-11, eventually the rescue dogs became depressed from finding corpse after corpse, and couldn't continue working. The handlers had to fake a few live rescues to cheer the dogs up.
When a dog gets depressed, you cheer it up, you don't get rid of it. I'm glad Russ and Judith were able to do this, for two dogs. God bless them and keep them safe!
This is very true, the dog search & rescue people would actually take turns hiding i the rubble, so that each other's dogs could find people alive, that broke my heart more than anything.
Bill Skinner That is awesome. Good to hear they worked at it and didn't give up on the dogs.
Bill Skinner that’s so true when I see my dog curled up kinda sad I rub his belly give him treats let him get on the couch and me petting him constantly.
Congrats on writing the saddest thing I've heard all day...
Bill Skinner
When one of my cats died, his older sister sat on his grave bc she knew something was up. We just comforted her and she eventually stopped doing it.
The owners who ditched her and went to the same shelter to get another dog should never have pets (or children). So happy she is getting loving people this time around. 🐕 💕
Apparently when the shelter realized what was happening, they turned the family away and did not allow them to adopt another dog.
Doesn't mean they didn't get one another way, but that shelter at least was not having it.
@@catwhowalksbyhimself Thanks for letting me know! I'm very happy to hear that the shelter didn't allow it. Some people don't seem to know (or care) that animals feel emotions, including sadness and rejection, just like humans.
@ Not from that shelter they didn't. As I said, they may have gotten one from somewhere else, but that shelter turned them away.
They should never have been allowed to adopt another dog. Ridiculous to abandon a dog because it was too depressed. Like WTF??
@henry t You did not just compare a dog to a damn sofa, and i agree, they shouldn't be allowed to adopt other dogs and im glad the shelter actually turned them away. You cant compare material things with living beings. These people showed that they cant care or just dont care for the health of their dog if they decided to just toss him away for a new one.
@henry t I disliked your comment. I’m guessing you’re a cat person.
@@jamesw5364 Hey now, the Cat Person Team doesn't want that hateful commenter either! Replacing your cat with a new "happier" one is just as bad!
@@megapiglatin2574 exactly
@@jamesw5364 he sounds more like a 'I don't like animals person' - I stay far away from those.
A beautiful older couple with a history of dogs will be the perfect place for Zuzu to grow old with :)
Yep
I wonder how those owners who ditched her would feel if their family did the same thing to them for being too depressed!😬
I wonder how long they will keep the new dog before they abandon this dog 1That was sad they should not be allowed anther dog mental abuse can b a lot worse a lot of the time then goes home with a different dog 😠😠they should get the same mental abuse mean people
Amen! Sick original owners. How heartbreaking but I’m so happy she got BETTER parents!
@@jordanabeaulieu2530 my dog got ditched with a few other puppies in front of the shelter. He’s the best little pup
Bless Zuzu and her new family.
Imagine getting rid of a family member because they’re depressed. Shame on the previous owners.
It’s a dog
Some people don’t see dogs as family members
Stop acting like they gave away their child
@@cringememes1044 you don't even have a pet
@@indjgaming4470 I have a cat and a dog
The dog is pure joy... she's better off without those horrible people 💕
she seems realy happy and exited not depressed. the owners were dumb ditching her
Iida Rose I think their other dog had just died so she was a little depressed or something. But it's like HELLO!? THAT IS NORMAL... Now she's back to herself, maybe better, cause she got a new home. The old owners suck.
KDOGG331..Have U read His comment *PROPERLY*
They could've got another playmate for her, unless they were too poor or just too cheap, but they still should be kept her, even if she is depressed, two of our dogs were depressed and we didn't give them away.
they were prolly bad owners anyway ): its good that she had a great new loving home, but they really didnt have to go visit her and be like, "oh hi dog we abandoned! we're not here for u!" thats just sad.
The shelter should have REFUSED to allow the people who abandoned Zuzu to adopt any other pet!
exactly !!!
Zhonguoria I agree sent them to another town
It’s funny cause they did xD
they did...
Zhonguoria noooooooo! They could have done some worse like kill the dog
“I don’t like my kid, imma just swap him out real quick”
imagine giving up your dog because it was DEPRESSED. they dont deserve pets.
The fact that the shelter allowed the original owner to take another dog is beyond me.
glad zuzu found a new home who wanted her. breaks my heart how much zuzu loved her ex-owner, and they just abandon her like that.
ik, good for her.
Abandoning an animal because they were 'too depressed' is so heartbreaking, couldn't imagine how that sweet lil dog felt as she saw her old owners walk out with another dog ):
Four years later I'm still mad about that original family...I really hope that shelter at least didn't give them a new dog
They didn’t
Zuzu was just not meant for the old “family.” God knew Dodger needed her after his old buddy died. 😭
Beautiful xx
@@loveispatientloveiskind2205 Yes
Ugh reminds me of an older cat I met the other day...His brother died and he got sad then he made a "best friend" and that friend got adopted out...I can't stop thinking about him 💔😭
I can finally sleep at night!
SirFlanksALot Same
this couple just earned themselves a special place in heaven.
Zuzu was probably Depressed because her old “owners” treated her bad or neglected her :/ I’m glad zuzu has a new forever Home now.
It's people like them who will change this world
Madelyn Grace did anyone else have a weird sound issue when they had their ear pods on? I though mine were broken untill i realized it was the video
@@fnsfhgh2483 It changes the dog's world.
its weird how that the family who adopted zuzu also had a dog that lost its friend and they didn't decide to put that dog for adoption cause it got "depressed" instead they got zuzu to comfort that dog, so why didn't zuzu's old owners just do that instead hhhhhmmmm?
This is beautiful story. Such a good people.
Original owners: leaves dog for being to depressed
Also original owners: adopt energetic dog
Also original owners: gives away dog for being to energetic
That's what I said!😄
Old owners didn't deserve her. Hope she's very happy now!
hmm. I wonder if they put it their children up for adoption because there "depressed"😠😠😠
Blair Waldorf I wonder the same thing
probably - that or medicate them
Lady Creepypasta i did 😄
Lady Creepypasta 😂
Why Don't We Updates - hey baby boy
She looks exactly like my Gilas 😫 I could never. How were they able to sleep at night? I’m so happy she found a new happy home.
I'm so happy to see that Zuzu has a new family that cares about her.
I can't go to shelters. I tend to come home with a lot more than planned.
For anyone facing this problem, I always suggest them to just foster.
I most definitely can't do that either. When I fall in love with a pet it is for absolute, unconditional keeps. I would never hurt their feelings by abandoning them or betray their trust.
M Paxton fostering isn't about "abandoning" them, you're not turning them out onto the streets, you're staying by their side & giving them the support they need to find their forever home, Taking a broken "lost cause" & giving them the courage & confidence to show their true personality to their prospective forever family.
Foster care isn't for everyone, but those who can do it, do a wonderful service & save SO MANY lives!
M Paxton Same😭 I'm an Extreme animal lover and I get attached Like THAT! i wouldn't be able to do that either
Lilac Lizard. Wow! Well said! It's a rare thing to find your insight. Animals have the ability to steal any decent humans heart and that's not wrong but it's insight and understanding like yours that really helps the multitude of animals in less than ideal circumstances. It's selfless love that you have and that is true love. Hats off to you!!
i hope the old owners werent allowed to get a new dog!!
Ari Amore - they did get a new dog. That's why they came to the shelter to pick out a new dog but not before taunting Zuzu first.
Ari Amore At my shelter, people aren't allowed to adopt a dog if they dump one at the shelter.
+Natasha Wigley in that case im waiting for them to be dead. They do not deserve any kind of pets, not even bugs! What kind of stupid people would do such thing to a loyal friend? Would they replace their kid each time they're get bored of them? Of course if they sober it'll be no. Same to dogs but i guess they just don't have a heart
Abigail Carroll - mine has a 1 year suspension. I'm shocked they could get another while the one they dumped was still there!
I'm so glad Zuzu's found a new home, but I can't get over how heartless her previous owners were. They shouldn't have tried to adopt a dog again at all, but to go to the same shelter as the one where they'd left their previous dog at....I'm so upset at that and their taunting her, that I'm at loss for words!
Well this is amazing I’m literally crying from happiness
I’m so glad and relieved that Zuzu now have a new, more loving home. God bless them. ❤️🙏
poor dog it's so cute😍
Eileen Mendoza I know
bruh itsangle Ikr I cried When I Watched the video on a diff Channel The dog got so happy and It hurt My soul 😭😭😭 Im So happy that she has new owners😍To love her, The old owners need to be put in a shelter!😭
original owners were monsters! she's so much better off now..so happy for her!
She seems like such a sweet dog. Idk why the last family took her to a shelter bc she was "depressed" maybe she was depressed bc she was with that family. Such a sweet dog ❤
All people deserve mercy
This: some people deserve mercy
This is amazing Zuzu deserves this, her original owners didn’t give her the love and respect she deserved and needs. Thank you Zuzu’s new owners and may god bless you.
❤️
All she needed was love and kind people to help her get through her loss. Thank God she's out of the original family's house because they have no hearts.
I can't understand someone doing that to a dog. I'm glad ZuZu has a good and loving home now.
Okay...I’m legit confused by the original owners yet very happy for zuzu
I’m depressed and you don’t see my family putting me up for adoption, then coming to that same adoption center and saying straight to my face that they don’t want me anymore and they adopt another child in front of me!
Is that a self diagnosis, gacha girl?
@@jeffkealy5951 lol no. I got diagnosed by a professional when I used to go to therapy.
Dude wtf. Glad they didn't adopt zuzu they CLEARLY weren't fit for a pet
Can dogs read and if they can they won't read this . but true the old owners got dropped in the head that's why they can't think right like others

Just may be the meanest things you can do to your pet other than hurt it! Damn wish they would of shown her owners faces. How can someone take your dog to shelter and leave? She was depressed for a reason, and she didn't look depressed when she saw the monsters! Well everything happens for a reason, because now she is loved, happy, and at home forever! 💖💜💟
That scene always stuck with me. I was angry, sad, and betrayed for that dog. I am so very happy that the dog has found a great home with better parents!
Awww. Her new family look so kind.
Her original owners be hella jealous that their dog got famous with another family.
I'm happy to hear she got a new home but the people who did that do her should not have been allowed to adopt another dog from that shelter.... abandoning a dog because she is depressed should be considered animal cruelty.
Zuzu deserves all the best things in the world. He deserves all the love.
Glad to see Zuzu got a forever loving home. The family that had Zuzu before should never be allowed to adopt a pet ever again.
“Now can dry your eyers for Zuzu” I was just crying because I watched the original video and this makes me so happy
Awe thankgod 🙏 i was heartbroken wen they abandoned her4 grieving loss of their other dog of course she be depressed.
hope zuzu n her new family have much happiness, god bless you
Thank you for giving her a second chance at a new life, she deserves it.
Have a blessed life together all of you.
When he said "when their other pet pasted away" i got the chills!! I know this is the perfect family for Zuzu!!
I watched the other and I though he was heartbroken :'(
Now :) I feel like he's gonna once again enjoy his Family :)
That guy looks like he's the kindest man alive
Yes ZUZU Bless y’all for rescuing her, she’s beautiful ❤️
Wow I am so disgusted by that family who adopted her and just dropped her back. Doesn't it make it that much worse that you're engaging her at the shelter only to leave her behind again? Yeah, lets continue to make her feel deserted over and over. Gosh, we aren't buying stuffed animals here wtf man.
I'm so glad she found a new home this story is heartbreaking
MR. & MRS. GALLO, thank you for giving ZUZU a new FOREVER home with a new buddy to play with after her Daddy passed away. She looks so happy...Blessings all the volunteers, vets, workers & all who gave ZUZU a voice & getting her ready for a new home.
Pretty hard to sell the depressed dog story when we see how ecstatically happy Zulu was to see her old owners. For some reason YT is recommending this 4 years down the track. I am hoping Zulu has had a lovely time with her sweet new family
I'm so happy for Zuzu after seeing the first video
I'm so happy she got a new home I hope that family wasn't allowed to adopt another one
Collin Gates they were that’s the worst part
Ugly Sagittarius no they werent
That’s just horrible that Zuzu had to endure seeing the family that abandoned her but I’m overjoyed that she has a good forever home !
That dog does not deserve the previous owner. God bless you!
She is so gorgeous, so glad she found a family who actually deserves her 😘😘😘😘😘
Where do her original owners live? I need an address.... i just wanna talk .
Thank the couple for having kindness in their heart to adope Zuzu... the previous cruel family should be OFF LIMITS AT THAT SHELTER, and go to jail.
Gee, I wonder why that dog was “depressed” with those scumbag owners
YAYAYAYAYYAYAYYAYAYAYAYAYAYA!!!!!! i was crying when i saw this video. HOw can people be so cruel????//
OMG!!!!I literally was just thinking about that dog yesterday! !!! I'm sooooooo happy that she was adopted! !!!! 💖
I'm so happy she got the family she deserves.
Omg so so happy to see this. Good for Zuzu... Thank God for this amazing couple...💝💖💘
That looks excited, not depressed, look at her tail
Yeah because it's with new owners

My god that's heartbreaking.
I feel so bad for the other dog that got adopted by such horrible excuses for people. I only hope they gave that one up too and that it was also adopted by much better people.
Glad to see Zuzu getting the home she deserves 👏
bless those other owners who adopted her😘😇
i cannot believe these idiots. this made my heart ache. i hope they were not blessed with another pet. they do not deserve one. thank you to the new family for rescuing zuzu...that was very kind.
Thank you for adopting her. My ❤ can beat normal again.👍
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I'm glad ZuZu deserves a wonderful home. ❤
YAY ZUZU GOT A NEW HOME! I cried when I saw the video of Zuzu! She's an amazing dog!
I'm so happy she's found a new home 😇
Two dogs going to grief after losing a sibling: one of them is given up for adoption because she was „too sad”, the other one gets a new companion.
The difference is striking and I hope Zuzu got the life she deserves with her new, loving family
There’s too many people who should never own dogs, that’s actually end up getting them. I don’t understand why you want an animal if you aren’t going to love and cherish it like your family?
Finally I can stop crying
God bless the new owners, I'm sure Zuzu will be a happy addition to the family for them.
That’s what happened with my dog! He was adopted from the shelter and returned a year later. The previous owner left him there and adopted a cat instead. Best mistake they’ve ever made - he’s the most amazing, precious dog ever and I’m so happy to have him in my life💙
So glad she found a home with loving humans instead of her previous callous owners dogs feel like we do
