Saying goodbye to a loved one being deployed in the Army is nearly impossible, but it’s even more painful for pets since they have no idea why their mom or dad is leaving them and have no idea if they’ll ever get to see them again.
For the past year, Laila the pit bull thought her mom, second-class petty officer Christina Baez, abandoned her and left her with the Masusock family. She didn’t realize, however, that her time with her loving foster family was only temporary.
One year after being deployed, Christina was finally finished serving overseas and when she got home, she headed straight to see Laila. “We were all so excited and nervous at the same time,” foster mom Donna Masusock said. “Cristina was afraid that Laila would not remember her.”
When Christina walked into the family’s backyard, however, Laila sprinted over to Christina, and cautiously sniffed at her legs and feet.
Once Laila realized it really was her long-lost mom, she completely lost it. “She was so excited! She just could not control herself,” Masusock said. “She kept running from her mom to our family. It was like she was telling us, ‘She’s here, she is really here!'”
