The Deaf Dog Who Took A Bullet To Protect His Owner And Ended Up Homeless, Has A Second Chance

Kiko, a brave bull who once saved his owner’s life during a home invasion, faced homelessness when circumstances forced his owner to move without him. For years, Kiko found solace and care under the watchful eye of Mighty Mutts, a New York City-based rescue organization. Despite being older and deaf, Kiko’s resilient spirit persisted, awaiting the right family to give him the love and security he deserved.

The heartwarming saga of Kiko caught the attention of a compassionate couple who saw his story on The Dodo. Recognizing Kiko as the missing piece in their lives, they eagerly reached out to Mighty Mutts. This Thursday, Kiko finally embarked on a journey to his forever home, filled with anticipation and joy. Mighty Mutts celebrated the match, acknowledging the couple’s dedication to providing Kiko with a safe haven where he would be cherished unconditionally.

Throughout his journey, Kiko found a steadfast supporter in his foster mother, Casey Ryan, who lovingly cared for him until his adoption. Reflecting on Kiko’s journey, Casey emphasized his gentle nature and the immense love he deserved in his golden years.

Mighty Mutts continues its mission, seeking foster homes in New York City to support more dogs like Kiko, ensuring each finds love and security on their path to forever homes. Kiko’s story is a testament to resilience, hope, and the transformative power of compassion in the world of animal rescue.
