Your Feel-Good Story of the Day

TAMPA, Fla. - Groomers removed two whole pounds of excess hair from a dog that was abandoned last month by his owner at Tampa International Airport, and ‘Bama’ is now settling into his new home.

Corinn Smith with VIP Rescue rushed to TPA after she got a call from airport police that a shih tzu-mix had been left at the American Airlines ticket counter.

Airport police say the owner couldn’t provide vet records to fly with the dog, so she simply discarded him in a high-traffic area.

Without hesitation, Smith took him in – but Bama first needed a little grooming.
