What started as an ordinary day by the water for Eddie and his wife quickly changed when they came across a sweet, stray dog.

The dog approached them right away, her warmth and trust shining through as she eagerly accepted the food they offered. It didn’t take long for the couple to feel a deep connection, and the thought of leaving her behind tugged at their hearts.

Eddie knew he couldn’t just walk away. Filled with determination, he decided to find her again on the beach, knowing he had to do something to help.

A Heartwarming Reunion By The Shore


After committing to help, Eddie and his wife scoured the area. Initially, they could not find the dog, but they persisted in their search.

A local woman recommended checking the street near the food vendors, a location the dog frequently visited. Following this guidance, they soon found her.

The dog spotted them first, trotting over with excitement and clearly recognizing the kind humans who had fed her. She eagerly accepted their pets and cuddles, as if expressing endless gratitude. 

The couple then faced the next challenge: how to safely bring her home.


They named her Cici and guided her to their car, where she appeared thrilled, as if she understood her life was about to change.

Eddie and his wife brought her to a nearby rescue, where Chelsea agreed to help. 

Cici required a medical evaluation, vaccinations, and care to ensure her health. Chelsea also assisted the couple with plans to transport Cici to Pennsylvania.

A New Beginning In Pennsylvania


Once preparations were complete, Eddie and his wife finished their trip before returning home.

When Cici was ready to travel, Chelsea helped coordinate her move to Pennsylvania, where Eddie and his wife eagerly awaited her arrival. They greeted her with a welcome gift, and Cici was instantly joyful to see them again.

At her new home, Cici met Chooch, another friendly dog. Eddie knew it would take time for the two to acclimate, but their first encounter was already promising.


Soon, the dogs were sniffing, playing, and sharing a special “welcome” cake together. Over time, Cici and Chooch will form an inseparable bond, enjoying life together at every turn.

What began as a simple vacation evolved into one of Eddie’s most meaningful experiences, all sparked by a stray dog on the beach. Now, Eddie and his wife treasure every moment with Cici and Chooch, grateful for the happiness the two dogs bring into their lives.
