If making animal lovers proud were a sport, Melissa Brandt would be mentioned in the same conversation as Tom Brady and Michael Jordan.
This video by Melissa is an endearing saga in itself, which begins with her approaching a starving pit bull she had never met before, offering food, and instantly gaining his trust.
"My coworker Sharon told me she saw a possibly dumped and starving pit bull in her yard," the filmer shared with WooGlobe. "I’m an animal lover and told her to call me if the dog came back. Sharon called, and I got cheeseburgers and raced to her house.
"The pit bull was so hungry, he came out of his hiding spot right away with my cheeseburger bites and was so sweet. I put the dog's picture on our town's local Facebook group, and within 20 minutes, we found his owner."
It turned out that the dog, named Opie, had been missing for three months. He had run off on Mother's Day while playing.
"I messaged his hooman mom, and she was so happy and excited," Melissa added.
Opie's reunion with his owner, coupled with him giving Melissa a goodbye kiss, was nothing short of a heartwarming ending straight out of a feel-good movie.
