A beagle named Rumi has melted hearts all over the internet after a video showing how his life drastically changed after being adopted went viral on social media last month.
In the video, shared on TikTok in May by the dog's owner under the username Rumi_the_beagle, the pup can be seen sleeping on a private plane, owned by his pilot owner, wearing a blanket and a pair of headphones to protect his ears.
The heartwarming post comes with a caption that says: "When you were given away for free in a parking lot and now fly private everywhere with humans who center their entire lives around your happiness and wellbeing." Followed by: "This beagle boy is winning at life."
Rumi's owner, Nicole, told Newsweek: "My husband is a private pilot and Rumi loves adventuring with us. He has brought so much joy to our lives so we try to give him the world—literally!"

According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA), about 3.1 million companion dogs enter U.S. animal shelters each year.
While about 2 million shelter dogs are adopted each year, about 710,000 who enter shelters as strays are returned to their owners. Each year, about 390,000 stray dogs are euthanized in shelters.
Statistics also show that 34 percent of dogs are purchased from breeders, while 23 percent are obtained from an animal shelter or humane society.
