Aster Rose is a puppy who was found to be blind and deaf.
When her owners found out about her heartbreaking condition, they requested the vet to put her down.
Fortunately, the vet said no.
And nothing at that time could change his mind.
He is very much aware that dogs who can’t see and hear can still live a beautiful life.
She wasn’t going anywhere.
So the vet took the dog in and looked for a rescue that would take her and her sister in.
And that’s when Krysten saw Aster’s photo and she immediately applied to adopt her.
And thankfully, the universe worked out and she ended up taking Aster home.
Apparently, this is not Krysten’s first time caring for a dog with special needs.
Little Buddy is her first dog.
“I’ve had Little Buddy for over three years now. He was listed as blind and deaf,” she shared. “We don’t really know much about his first 10 months of life. His owner took him to a rescue and said, ‘my girlfriend doesn’t like my dog [and] says I can’t keep this dog anymore.”
And just like that, the poor canine was abandoned.
It was truly heartbreaking to just think about it.
He wasn’t adopted until 2.5 years later.
Little Buddy is an adorable Australian shepherd.
Now that he’s under Krysten’s loving care, he is now in perfect health, living his best life yet.
His blindness didn’t stop him from living such a full life.
He loves adventures and is always ready for some time out to run and play.
Little Buddy lives with two cats.
The cats are named Teddy and Goose and they are foster fails.
They were abandoned so Krysten decided to foster them.
But she was surprised at how much Little Buddy enjoyed their company.
“When I adopted Aster, I knew that Teddy would be fine with her, but I kinda thought it would be this dynamic where they just coexist,” she recalled. “And then when she was little, he would approach her to snuggle.”
Teddy adores Aster.
For some reason, Aster became Teddy’s snuggle buddy and they’re just inseparable.
And to match that, Goose also happened to build such a strong connection with Little Buddy.
It was as if they all found their best friends in each other.
For any pet owner, that’s probably the best feeling in the whole world.
The dogs share a special bond.
“Ultimately, Aster and Little Buddy have the most remarkable bond in this loving family,” the caption wrote.
According to Krysten, they truly are brothers and sisters.
“Little Buddy doesn’t know how to play with other dogs. He never had that in his childhood, and Aster hasn’t given up. She will not give up on playing with him,” she shared.
And now, the connection they have created is unbeatable.
Their love fills Krysten’s home with so much joy every day.
Indeed, dogs with special needs get to live a beautiful life in the arms of such loving humans like Krysten.
