Not all dogs cope with being in a shelter.

Like Guapo the pitbull, all they want is a real home they can call their own. Every day, staff would see Guapo’s despair at never finding a loving home written all over his face. His permanent look of sadness was heartbreaking.

The staff at the shelter decided to go the extra mile to help the lovely dog’s dreams come true. They shared a photo of Guapo, hoping someone would fall in love with him and come forward to adopt him. Fortunately it worked.

Soon after the photo was posted, the shelter was inundated with enquiries about the adorable pup. While several people came to meet Guapo, one special family decided they wanted to adopt him. 

When the day finally came for Guapo to go to his forever home, he still looked desperately sad. Perhaps he couldn’t believe that his dream had come true. But once he arrived at his new home, it didn’t take him long to start exploring and making the most of his new garden.

His new family says: “Guapo “freedom name Rosco” is doing great. We would love to share his story. He snuggles with his new brother.”

This is why we do what we do. Why we show our dogs in a different way. Because we know that what people see behind those kennel bars isn’t always what we see every day. It isn’t always what’s really inside.

People say don’t judge a book by its cover. We say don’t judge a dog by its breed.
