Meatball, also known as Meaty, was living at a shelter in Central Valley, California when he got saved by the Fresno Bully Rescue before he got euthanised. During his time at the rescue, Lisa Reilly noticed him, especially because of his sweet face. She was drawn to him also because to resembled her pittie that she had lose just 3 months earlier.
Once Lisa got him home and all comfortable, he was so happy he started smiling. And he never stopped. His happy and quirky smile is so adorable and infectious and you can't help but smile along with him.
Meaty now had a furever family with his new mom Lisa and his new dad Joe. He even got new doggo siblings, 2 pitties called Punky and Ricardo Tubbs, and 2 Dachshunds called Bitty and Dappe.
His smile is so lovely and his personality is so awesome that he has so many fans from around the world! His mom has photos and videos of Meaty on her Instagram page where she has 150k followers who all cherish Meaty.
Sadly, Meaty and his sibling Punky have since crossed over to the rainbow bridge. But they have made their mark on the world before passing. They are, and will always be, sorely missed.
While it is so sad to know that this smiley boy doesn't smile on Earth anymore, we're sure he's grinning away over at the rainbow bridge.
