"I really hope that my story brightens someone's day and gets people all over the world to seek out their local animal shelters and give these animals some hope that they aren't forgotten."

Patrol officer Marcus Montgomery was called to the Panhandle Animal Welfare Society in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, to deal with a former shelter employee. While he was there, he made friends with an adorable little puppy, and ended up taking him home the next day. The puppy's name is Kylo. Here's the best part: Montgomery already has a rescue dog named Vader. The two of them are getting along well.

"Vader has been getting used to Kylo being around and realizing that he has a younger sibling to look after," Montgomery told the Huffington Post. "Kylo follows him everywhere and is constantly wanting to play, and he obliges each time. So they are getting along perfectly."

He and his girlfriend are fostering Kylo and, after he gets neutered and has all of his shots, he will be adopted to the family.
