DEAF DOG IS SO EXCITED TO SEE HER MILITARY DAD RETURN HOME.

Even if we are gone only briefly, dogs, who are renowned for their loyalty, always miss us. For instance, consider this puppy. When Cotton’s dad left for a two-day drill weekend with the Oregon National Guard, Cotton was sad to see him go. The dog rejoiced when his father arrived home. Cotton is not just any dog; he is deaf.

Cotton was quickly trained as his service dog after being saved and adopted as a surprise for his soldier father. He’s a great friend, and it seems like he would sacrifice anything for his soldier father. Cotton is obviously very devoted to his father, as evidenced by the eagerness with which he waits by the door for the arrival of his best friend. Oh my goodness, Cotton, calm down—it’s only been two days!

Just kidding, your father-loving attitude is endearing. While moving back and forth, Cotton looks out the window. He has a sneaking suspicion that the soldier will return soon. Long overdue, the soldier finally shows up—much to Cotton’s relief. Two entire days of waiting are too much for this furry fella, and he goes completely insane. He sprints to his father as soon as the door is opened and eagerly greets him in his canine fashion. Mostly, this entails heaps of jumping up and down on him and tail-wagging incessantly.
