“It will be so tough to lose him shortly, so I decided to take the time he has left.”
A family in Georgia is determined to give a dying dog the best final days possible after adopting him from an animal shelter last month.
Nicole Elliott told BuzzFeed News that she saw a post on Facebook from a local animal shelter featuring Chester, and felt compelled to help.
The title of the post was "hospice needed," because Chester is dying of cancer. The pup was saved from a kill shelter in April by Animal Ark Rescue, and was in rough shape.
Chester had surgery to remove a large tumor, but the tumors kept coming back. Surgery is no longer an option for him.
"Chester is the sweetest little guy and we are looking for that special someone that would let him live out his life in the comfort of a home," the shelter said.

Elliott said that she was charmed by the "handsome" Chester and decided she wanted to "try to make his remaining days full of love, and fun."
"It will be so tough to lose him shortly, so I decided to take the time he has left (which is undetermined, but not guessed to be very long) and make it as happy as I can," she wrote on Facebook.
