Every day, dogs in shelters gaze at the kennel door with hopeful eyes as they wait for someone to give them a chance. They long to meet humans who will love them and show them how beautiful life can be.

Pepperoni Pizza Slice, a 5-year-old dog at the Watauga Humane Society in Boone, North Carolina, knows this feeling firsthand.
