VIDEO: He didn't recognize his owner after 5 weeks apart... until he smelled him.

Shane had been in the hospital for 5 weeks battling the flu (and other medical complications). In the process, he lost 50 pounds! When he was finally released, he couldn't wait to be reunited with his dog, Willie. But Willie didn't recognize him at first. In the video, you'll see he's a little apprehensive at first, until he smells Shane and realizes his pal is home! The level of joy this dog shows for his human will bring tears to your eyes and serve as a reminder that we don't deserve dogs. They're just too precious.
