No one wants to adopt this dog, and shelter staff just can not figure out why!

Meet Bear, a sad doggie no one adopts, who has been waiting for a loving forever home at a shelter for more than 2 and a half years now.
The dog was found as a stray in Flint, Michigan, and has been spending his lonely days at the Detroit Animal Welfare Group (DAWG) ever since.
“He was about 7 months old and very emaciated,” Kelley LaBonty, director of DAWG said.
“He stayed in foster care for a while, but then the foster had family who moved in, and they could not keep him anymore.”
Throughout the years, those who were interested in taking him would change their minds at the last second.


“He is depressed… as most dogs get, especially after two years of being in a kennel…”

We have taken him to hundreds of adoption events over the years, and he just gets overlooked every time.” This left Bear depressed and heartbroken.

Mostly he just lays on his bed with his head down”


LaBonty took a picture of the canine in the kennel. “It went viral because it was a very sad picture…


Bear is a very sweet and loving dog who just wants to be loved.

The only thing is, he does not get on well with other pets
