What a wonderful feel good story!
Here are the details from PhillyVoice:
Bella-Reed Pit Bull Rescue lined up a private flight to retrieve Bosco after its ground transportation plan fell through.
Bosco, who suffers from some vision impairment, had been at the Washington County Animal Shelter in Tennessee for several months without receiving any interest, according to WJHL-TV in Johnson City.
The dog’s foster mom, Ashley West, reached out to more than 50 pit bull rescues across the United States and received interest from only one: Bella-Reed Pit Bull Rescue in Southeastern Pennsylvania.
