For a long time, Hallee had been hoping to have a dog as a pet and she started helping out at a nearby shelter. During her volunteer work, she grew fond of a particular dog and felt sad when she learned it had already found a new home. However, without her knowing, her parents were secretly preparing a special Christmas gift that would bring her immense joy.
For many years, Hallee Fuqua had been yearning for a furry companion as her Christmas wish, but her parents kept telling her to wait until she finished college as she was pursuing her studies at Oklahoma State University. To fill the emptiness inside, she committed herself as a volunteer at the Humane Society of Stillwater. It was there that she encountered Rambo, a charming Plott Hound mix, who stole her heart away.
In no time, Hallee and Rambo formed a close connection, and she began visiting him regularly. Although Rambo was a big dog and thus hard to find an adopter, all he craved was some love and affection. According to Hallee, Rambo was a calm and quiet dog who didn’t bark much. More importantly, he loved cuddling and acted as if he was a lap dog despite his size.
Hallee developed a strong bond with Rambo as time passed, prompting her to share videos and pictures of the pup with her parents. Eventually, Hallee’s mom, Jessica, came to the realization that Rambo was meant to be a part of their family. Despite initially denying the idea, Jessica felt that Rambo belonged with them. To surprise Hallee, her parents decided to adopt Rambo as a Christmas present. However, since the holiday was still some weeks away, the Humane Society lent a hand and kept the adoption under wraps.
One day, Hallee received the disappointing news that her beloved pet had been taken in by a new family. Her father, Lance, mentioned that she was devastated. Unfortunately, Hallee did not know who had adopted Rambo. To cheer her up, her parents came up with a plan to give her an early Christmas present. Their heartwarming surprise was caught on camera and is sure to warm the hearts of those who see it.
Rambo, wearing a cute pair of reindeer antlers, was patiently waiting outside the family’s house on a leash. Hallee’s mother gave her some instructions before she opened the door, and what she saw left her speechless. It was the dog that she never thought she would ever see again.
Hallee was overjoyed to see her beloved pet in their yard and couldn’t control her emotions as tears streamed down her face. Her dad then released Rambo from the leash, and he ran towards his new master with love and affection.
The moment is extremely emotional as Hallee becomes overwhelmed with feelings. Other family members join her and greet Rambo, but there is one question that she needs an answer to. Looking at the camera, Hallee asks, “Is he mine?” When she finds out that Rambo is indeed hers, tears continue to roll down her cheeks. This heartwarming clip is so touching that it can bring tears to anyone’s eyes.
After the video was uploaded, it rapidly gained popularity and became viral. Within a year, it has amassed over 4.2 million views on YouTube alone. Hallee’s father, Lance, shared the story behind the heartwarming moment in the video’s description. He concluded by saying that they surprised Hallee with an early Christmas present and captured the joyful moment on camera. The video is a testament to Hallee’s happiness, and it’s titled “Merry Christmas Hallee! #onehappygirl #onehappydog”.
