Shelter life is hard for all dogs. But particularly so for those who have known and lost the love of a famiy who doesn't want them anymore...

Several years ago, a Pitbull named Blue was brought to a high kill-shelter in the USA.

The dog was dropped off by his own family, who were moving and didn’t want to take Blue with them.

Pitbull dropped off at shelter is devastated

Blue couldn’t believe his own family would leave him behind. In his kennel, he sat in a corner, with his head down, and tears running down his face.

Though the tears were probably due to an allergy, Blue’s despair was real. And to make matters worse, no-one was interested in adopting him, which meant he would eventually have to be euthanised.

Desperate to help the poor dog who deserved so much better, a volunteer posted a heart-breaking video of him on Facebook, asking for a kind soul to take him in.

And sure enough, the call to action worked! A woman named Jennifer McKay immediately fell in love with the Pitbull and drove to the shelter to see him. 

"He wouldn't even acknowledge me at all. All the other dogs were making eye contact and wagging their tails, but he wouldn't stand up, wouldn't come see me. You could tell that every time someone walked by, it was like he was looking for them, [his family]" she said. "It's like he knew he had been left there." said Jennifer.

Jennifer knew she needed to help Blue. She immediately adopted him and took him home.
