This 185lb Bullmastiff Hadn't Made a Sound in Months—Until One Woman Sat on the Floor

#bullmastiff #bullmastifflove #rescuedog For seven months, a 185 pound Bullmastiff named Moose sat in the back corner of a shelter kennel and never made a single sound. The staff had stopped expecting anyone to choose the silent giant in the back. Then a woman in Boulder, Colorado, whose house had gone quiet the week her daughter left for college, did the one thing no one else had tried. She sat down on the floor and waited. For months Moose stayed silent, even as he slowly came back to life in her quiet house. Until one freezing December night, when Erin fell and could not reach a phone, the dog who hadn't made a sound in over a year finally found his voice—and would not stop until help came through the door. Sometimes a heart doesn't open with words. It opens for the one person willing to sit in the silence and wait.
