May 13, 2019 by apost team

In March, there was a warrant issued to arrest the man by the name of Joshua West. He was located in a hotel in Orange Country, California at that time. He was arrested after violating his parole as a former offender.

When the police entered the place that he was staying at, they found illegal drugs and needles, just as they expected. But what they did not expect to find was something else in the corner of a room. It was a small white puppy that also appeared to be drugged.

Officers took the puppy to Orange County Animal Care. He received professional veterinary care and was named Bubba. After his treatment and immediate medical attention, the officers were notified that the dog had Meth and Heroin in his system. At this point, nobody knows how the puppy got these drugs inside of him.

After this knowledge, the county district will include animal cruelty to the long list of charges of West. At the same moment, Bubba has made recovery and will soon be ready to be sent to a rescue center. The puppy is doing fine with the staff of the Orange County Animal Care and has turned into a favorite.

He is very social which makes him a perfect candidate for many rescue groups. A couple of them are waiting to take him as soon as he is completely recovered. A week ago, Officer Laurich who brought in the puppy decided to go and check how the puppy was doing.

Their meeting was caught on camera. Bubba was happy to see the person who rescued him. He apparently recognized the officer, although he was already 6 months old now. The two had fun under the sun close to the rescue center. See the joy of the puppy who is reintroduced to the man who he knows as his rescuer.

It is nice to see real stories of real people in blue. There are so many negative postings about police officers that we need to see real cases of officers being just ordinary humans with emotions and a heart.

What do you think of the puppy’s love for his rescuer? Do you think the puppy remembered him as someone special? Let us know in the comments and pass this along to your friends and family to warm their hearts, too!
