As soon as this little puppy spotted the two officers, he started following them and begging to be saved. ❤️
So happy that the officer adopted the puppy. He is so cute.
Thankful for the officer who opened his heart and home to this puppy.
Every police officer has a duty and responsibility to serve and protect the community… especially the smallest and most “vu.lner.able” members.
On October 5, 2019, officers Mercado and Tavera, of the Los Angeles Police Department (Hollywood Division), were doing their regular street patrol when they noticed something small and incredibly cute following them.
It was a teeny-tiny chocolate puppy that was wandering the streets of Los Angeles, hoping someone would save him.
He knows you have a good heart💗
As soon as this little puppy spotted the two officers, he started following them and begging to be saved. They decided to name the little puppy Hobart, after Hobart Blvd. where he was found.
He was far too young and [vu.lner.able] to stay on the streets all by himself, so the officers decided to take him with them back to the police station.
He deserves the best 💙
The puppy seemed to be in love with officer Mercado and couldn’t stop following him around. It was adorable to see.
In the car ride back to the station, the little puppy happily settled in officer Tavera’s lap and stared with love and adoration at his rescuers. Hobart was conferred at the police station with the honorary rank of K-9. Everyone was simply immediately in love with this little nugget.
Tiny dog find huge heart.❤
But, they knew that the police station was not the right home for this sensitive pup. He needed a proper home and care.
So, they decided to contact a local rescue group called Ghetto Rescue FFoundation (GRFF), which welcomed little Hobart.
He received proper veterinary care and [va.ccina.tions], and was supposed to be put up for adoption.
Fair play to ya for saving the puppy 🐶
The video of little Hobart lovingly following officer Mercado had gone viral in the meantime, and everyone was suggesting that it should be Mercado to adopt the little guy.
What no one knew at the time was that as soon as officer Alejandro Mercado sent his wife, Quincy Hutchison, the picture of Hobart, she immediately fell in love and requested to adopt the pup.
A lot of you have been asking what Hobart is up to these days… you will be happy to know Officer Mercado has adopted him, and he is now living the good life with Mercado and his family!
Everyone was delighted with the outcome of this rescue situation. These two are definitely meant to be together! Congrats on your new home, Hobart!
So cute 🥰
The house is full of rescue dogs, along with a police K-9 dog, so little Hobart was definitely at the right place. Little Hobart definitely grew into his ears, and he is looking as adorable as ever.
He’s the most loving and lively puppy. He loves all of his puppy cousins, and will chew on his toys for hours. He’s still learning potty training, and loves the outdoors/play time in the grass!
Thank you for caring…
I have no doubt that Hobart is having the time of his life with Mercado and his family. It really was meant to be.
Angels come in many forms, and thank God, that these these two offices, and one of them adopted this tiny dog… Thank you kind sir for rescuing very Lucky doggy❤❤🙏
God Bless you and thank you for your service 🙏🙏🙏
What a wonderful story….It looks as though tiny Hobert has brought joy to all who know him… Please give him a little hug from me…💓💓
