Amanda Balionis is well-known for her NGO, Puppies and Golf, which helps stray puppies find new homes. She not only helps stray animals, but the CBS reporter also works to disseminate as much information as possible about how to approach dogs. Ironically, Balionis recently revealed how difficult it is for her to say goodbye to her dogs once they get adopted.

On August 1, the CBS reporter uploaded an Instagram story on how difficult the morning was for her. Balionis stated that one of her favorite dogs, whom she was caring for in the meantime, was adopted, and she cried all morning as a result. She noted that although her and the NGO's work has been intended to help dogs get adopted, it is always difficult for her when the dogs travel far from her.

"Okay, so I've been crying all morning because Manny is likely getting adopted on Saturday (!!!) and it's always the hardest part to say goodbye, even though it's what we have been working towards. ANYWAYS... I sit down on my flight and look who my seatmate is..."
