People Are Shocked At What Else Is In Pic Of Veteran At Lowe’s On Closer Look. Now It's Going Viral.
By Timfly
After seeing an unusual sight in her local hardware store, a woman decided to snap a pic that has since gone viral – and with good reason. As it turns out, the image depicted a veteran who got himself a job at Lowe’s, but it’s what else that is seen in the picture upon closer look that has everyone so shocked.
Judy Rose was doing a bit of shopping at Lowe’s in Abilene, Texas when an employee caught her attention. However, it wasn’t so much the man that piqued her interest as it was what was at the man’s feet – and that’s about the time she whipped out her camera.
The picture she took is now warming hearts across the nation because it shows Lowe's decision to hire its latest two employees: a disabled veteran and his service dog.
The Abilene Reporter-News reported that Charlotte, a 10-year-old golden retriever, is trained to help her companion Clay Luthy, a former C-130 loadmaster in the U.S. Air Force, if he falls. Due to knee injuries, Luthy has undergone five surgeries and can’t bend his left knee at all.
“I got [Charlotte] as a puppy, and she was never supposed to be a service dog,” Luthy told KIDY. “I found out a couple years ago she was alerting me, and I didn’t even know it.”
Jay Fellers, human resources manager at the Lowe’s, in Abilene, said the two were the best pair for the job.
Perhaps the best part is that Lowe’s was so dedicated to the decision that they got the man’s dog its own vest for when he was on the job. Although the man once couldn’t get a job because he needed his service pet, that was a thing of the past because one company knew that somethings are more important than making sure every box is checked before hiring someone.
The photo of Luthy and Charlotte in their red Lowe’s vests has gone viral on Facebook, garnering about 136,000 likes since being posted by an Abiliene Lowe’s customer on Tuesday.
Show this to everyone you know. It will definitely put a smile on their face.
