"PUPDATE" on "Trooper," the white Bull Terrier who had been cruelly tied to a fence during Hurricane #Milton and left to stand in deep water as the storm rolled in. He was saved by #Florida State Trooper Orlando Morales and renamed in his honor.
In this heartwarming #CBS News clip, they are reunited. Morales drove four hours on his day off to see the dog again.
"Trooper" is currently happy and safe in a loving foster home, waiting to be adopted. The list of potential adopters is around 500 people.
His 23-year-old former owner has been identified and is facing felony criminal charges for animal cruelty.
[CW: Have a few tissues on hand for some HAPPY tears.]
