Here's some happy news to warm your heart.
Heather Siebert lost the use of her body from the neck down after a paralyzing car accident last June and if it wasn't for one man's act of kindness, would have lost her dog and best friend Shorty.
Gregg Stokes was driving down a country road in North Carolina when he spotted the injured dog and immediately pulled over to help the animal.
Luckily, the animal wasn't severely injured and Gregg was able to take the animal home.
While asking around the community for the owner of the dog, he happened to bring it to Heather's former high school where everyone immediately recognized the dog.
Heather had just about given up hope and thought Shorty was gone for good when the kind stranger reunited her with the dog.
"When I'm having my bad days, my mom and dad just put Shorty on my bed and let him lay here with me," Heather told reporters after the reunion.
Her mother was appreciative of the stranger's act of kindness and overjoyed with their good fortune, saying:
"It just seems like every time something negative happens, there's something positive that brings a ray of sunshine back into our lives."
We're SO happy for the Seiberts and Shorty!
We wish Heather the best as she continues to live a full and happy life, even after such a tragic accident, with Shorty by her side.
