One dog, who was in desperate need of a deep cleaning, found that just by sitting on the side of the road in Texas.
Filthy, Matted Dog On The Side Of The Road
A woman and her family were driving along the road in Texas when they spotted something unusual. A large dog was just sitting in a field near the side of the highway.
A video posted to YouTube shows that as the woman approached the animal, it did not appear to be afraid. The dog didn't even move. Instead, it allowed Laura, the woman who spotted the dog, to corral it and place the animal in her van.

"I thought the dog would just run," Laura said. "I thought he was going to be scared. It was almost like he was waiting."
The dog, found near the side of the road, needed a bath badly. The animal was so dirty that it took a dog groomer more than four hours to clean the animal.
Soon after the animal was found, a decision was made to add him back to the family. The next step was a 23-hour drive back to Michigan.

The dog, the family named Murphy, fit right in with the rest of the family's animals – Sunny, a dog and Bruno, a cat.
Following the sudden and unexpected death of Sunny, Murphy was there to fill the giant hole in the family's heart. In fact, Laura mentioned one big and surprising similarity between Sunny and Murphy.
