Awwww! This is so cute! I love hearing happy stories about rescue pets
being adopted. Especially when it’s
people who can afford to buy an expensive pedigree dog and rather choose to
save a life. Congrats to the Clooney family!
Here is a clip from the article in US Magazine:

Found a home
for this hound! George Clooney and his wife, Amal Alamuddin, adopted a sweet
shelter dog named Millie on Wednesday, Oct. 28.
The happy
couple stopped by the San Gabriel Valley Humane Society in San Gabriel, Calif.,
where Millie — a short-legged, long-eared basset hound with googly eyes —
adorably awaited their love.
"It was
a happy day at the shelter for Millie!" the shelter wrote on its website
on Wednesday. "She is a four-year-old Basset Hound mix with gorgeous looks
that would land her on any 'Hush Puppies' commercial!"
According to
the website, Milie was homeless up until several weeks ago. "Millie was
found without a home and hoping for food scraps outside of a local restaurant
in San Gabriel earlier this month," the post revealed. "Today her
luck changed for the better when she was adopted by George and Amal
Clooney."
The Clooneys,
meanwhile, were already in search for a basset hound like Millie, whose photo
they came actress on pet search-engine Petfinder. On Wednesday, they brought
along their adopted cocker spaniel Louie to meet Millie, and potentially see if
they could get along.
"They
did a ‘meet and greet’ with her and spent time introducing her to their other
rescue," the site shared. "It was good news that Millie and Louie hit
it off and the happy, new family headed home together! We hope Millie will stay
in touch and send photos. Congratulations to the Clooney family and thank you
for adopting!"

It is really cool that they chose rescue animals over pedigrees. Thanks for sharing!
