Two dogs were scheduled to die -- set to be euthanized as they reached their deadline for adoption on Monday at a kill shelter in Georgia.

But Kala and Keira were saved at the last minute after a photo of them hugging went viral on social media.

The moving image, posted on Facebook Monday morning by Angels Among Us Pet Rescue -- a Georgia-based group that works to save animals from kill shelters -- was accompanied by a note written as if it were from Kala's perspective as the clock counted down their final hours:

"Keira knows what will happen. You can see it in her eyes. She's putting on a brave face for sure but I can feel her heart beating fast while I'm clinging to her. If no one saves us, someone will take her away from me. I'll see her as she goes down the hallway. She won't come back and I'll cry. They'll come for me next and I won't be as brave. We've comforted each other while we were here. She gave me hope when I had none. Now it's over. Unless... "

The message, together with the heartbreaking image of the two dogs -- behind bars, hugging as if they really did know their lives were on the line -- deeply moved netizens, who rushed to share the Facebook post Monday.

The attention that the post garnered ended up saving the dogs' lives.

Go there and see the picture. It will change your life.
