TikTok user ex_barista fell in love with Gigi when they learned of her story online. So they decided to become a vritual foster, regularly taking the sweet Staffie mix on trips away.
And while Gigi loves her weekly outings, her heartbreak at coming back to the shelter is hard to watch.
The joy disappears from her face
With her kind foster carer, Gigi gets to go on all kinds of adventures. She spends time wandering around in the woods, eating ice cream and playing in the river.
But at the end of the day ex_barista has to bring Gigi back to kennels. They captured her sweet expression on the ride back, and the clip has now been seen by over 4 million people.
The joy on Gigi's face disappears when she realises what's happening, and no amount of cuddles from her foster seem to help.
In need of a home
More than anything, sweet Gigi just needs to find a home of her own. A loving family where outings and ice cream aren't a one off, they're a regular occurrence.
And thanks to her foster, she's getting the visibility she needs to help her find the perfect family.
