Senior Labrador retriever, a black beauty, travels like Odysseus, through dangers, and through unimaginable hardship just to get home. The pup arrives back at her doorstep, only to be shunned off the mat and told to take a hike.
Her name is Ma Kettle, and the story falls back to 2012. Ma had been living with a Kansas family until they decided to get a new dog. A new tiny model – They traded up. Ma couldn’t adjust, so the family decided to give her away.
Ma went to live with an independent lady, but soon, she was out on the streets. Her first instinct was to return to her former home. Ma traveled over 30 miles to arrive back at her house. Her needs and desires were overwhelming.
Still, despite her journey, she was unceremoniously shunned. Now, this brave, noble being was without a home, without a place to lay her old bones. She was spayed, housebroken, and leash trained, mellow, and had problems walking. She needed a home.
But this dog finds a happy ending in the grandest, most beautiful way. After posting the story of Ma Kettle on Pinterest, someone took an interest in her, and it was the heiress of Wrigley Chewing Gum! The dog was picked up by a private jet and is now living the high life in sunny ol’ Florida. How awesome is this story? It even has retirement in Florida – it doesn’t get better than that.
