Reddit is an interesting place. This gigantic website has more than 52 million daily visitors who discuss everything from obscure video games to current events.
There’s also a huge animal-loving community on Reddit. And when this community gets together, they can do some amazing things.
This includes finding a new forever home for a sweet, lonely dog.
One day, Reddit user Narya9 posted this heartbreaking picture of a dog named Mack. The post was entitled: “This little guy waiting for his new family to pick him up.”
In a comment, Narya9 reveals that the “Pouty Hippo’s” name is Mack, and he was waiting to be adopted from the Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter.
The Redditors were completely charmed. Many said he looked like a cartoon character with his big eyes.
Exactly 7 days later, Narya9 made an update, writing:
“I posted this puppy a few days ago. today he went to his furever home :)”
The pup’s grin is completely infectious! The transformation is simply remarkable.
As luck would have it, Mack (or Frank, as he is now known) was adopted by another Reddit user. The Redditor saw the pup’s picture and immediately knew he was the right fit for his family. The user, KeysOnATable, updated fellow Redditors with another heartwarming snap, writing:
“I was told Frank didn’t look happy enough in my last post.”
Frank the Tank, as the pup has been nicknamed, has gained a ton of Reddit fans and now has his own Instagram account.
Redditors just can’t get enough Frank— even going so far as to make fan art depicting the expressive pup!
Frank’s family has been good with updating their following about Frank the Tank’s adventures.
By all accounts, Frank is having a blast with his new ‘furever’ family, which includes big brother Max.
It’s so cool to see what can be achieved when a group of like-minded individuals gets together, even going so far as to find a needy dog a loving, new home!
Although Frank the Tank got lucky, Narya9 reminds everyone that there are still many pets that are up for adoption. The Reddit user urges everyone:
“Make another animal as happy as this furry guy.”
We’re so glad Frank is doing well and is in such a wonderful forever home. It just goes to show that the internet can be a force of good when a group of like-minded people comes together!
Check out a video of Frank below!
