General Hospital found loads of kudos when the ABC show highlighted the plight of lab animals. If you don’t follow the show, the pups came from fictional Professor Dalton’s facility (Daniel Goddard). Read on for more details.
The daytime soap is famous for various veteran actors and decades of storylines. But this year, Emma (Braedyn Bruner) and her friend Gio (Giovanni Mazza) found a sweet pup named Outback. The adorable pup quickly became a fan favorite.

However, the story progressed since then, and Emma and Gio, along with Rocco (Finn Carr) released a whole bunch of dogs. Later, they all ended up at Sonny Corinthos’ place (Maurice Benard).
A wonderful photo arrived on General Hospital’s Instagram showing loads of pups and plenty of cast members including Ryan Paevey (Nathan), Maurice Benard, Rick Hearst, Finn Carr, Giovanni Mazza and Braedyn Bruner.

In the caption, the show’s admin asked, “Whoever said not to work with kids or animals clearly hasn’t wrangled 10 dogs at 8:30 in the morning. Is there any chance Sonny adopts all of these good boys and girls? Find out today!”
According to Michael Fairman TV, the question would soon be answered. But, the storyline of so many dogs really resonated with GH fans. In the comment section, many folks loved that the popular TV show highlighted the plight of laboratory animals and animal rights.
Many fans hoped that crime boss Sonny Corinthos would home the dogs. But others commented on animal welfare. One of them opined, “I love that you guys are bringing dogs onto the show more. Outback has really made a name for herself on the show now.”

As you can see, combining popular daytime drama with animal awareness got a lot of kudos. Possibly, other TV shows might also use their massive audience to help in a similar way.
