#1 Eugen’s dog train :
The first story we’d like to talk about is the one of Eugene Bostick. An 80 years old Texan man, who decided to take in all abandoned dogs from his neighborhood. The man declared to The Dodo (a website for the love of animals, you can find here):
« We live down on a dead-end street, where me and my brother have a horse barn. People sometimes come by and dump dogs out here, leaving them to starve. So, we started feeding them, letting them in, taking them to the vet to get them spayed and neutered. We made a place for them to live. »

But we could not talk of heartwarming stories without mentionning these elderly couple beautiful love stories ? These pensioners tell you of the happiest moments in their couple life and it is really touching. Learn about Helen, 101, and Maurice, 102, happiest moments : the birth of their first child, their wedding day and the day they became grandparents. The film won a BAFTA.
Randomness in love : Maurice walked into her parents’ shop for the first time to pick up an order… and didn’t leave for three hours.

#3 Esther’s Saturday night fever :
And now it is time for our third story. Picture, it’s Saturday night and you want to shake your booty and go dance all night long. Would you rather party with elderlies or with people your own age ? My guess, you would choose the second option. But only because you have not watched grandma Esther dancing! Do not miss it, and especially, do not hesitate to swing ! The video is here, and the name of the song is Runaround Sue by Dion.
