This is what 128 days of shelter life looks like for dogs like Tyson. He is scared, anxious, sad, and confused. But most of all he is losing hope... Hope that he will ever find a family of his own and one day be able to leave noisy shelter life behind. 🙁

Our sweet Tyson is beginning to show signs of decline at the shelter. He is pacing in circles in his kennel, refusing to come outside - even for snacks. Shelter life is breaking Tyson's spirit and Tyson is breaking our hearts. 💔

Tyson is one of the sweetest, most snuggly boys we have ever met. He is four years young, good with other dogs and can live with cats. He is not a high energy or high maintenance pup. He's content to just lay on the couch and watch you work, or take a stroll after dinner to smell the flowers. He truly is the very best boy and just wants a forever human to cuddle with. 🫶

Someone out there must be looking to add a sweet pup like Tyson to their family. 💚

PLEASE COMMENT AND SHARE to help boost this post! Let's find Tyson his forever family so he doesn't have to spend another minute at the shelter! 🐾

Just a dog.

From time to time people tell me “chill out, it’s just a dog” or “it’s a lot of money just for a dog.” They don't understand the distance traveled, the time invested, or the costs incurred by "just a dog".
Some of my proudest moments have occurred with “just a dog.”

Many hours have passed being my only company "just a dog", but not for one moment did I feel despised. Some of my saddest moments have been because of “just a dog,” and on those gray days, the gentle touch of “just a Dog” gave me comfort and the reason to get through the day.

If you also think “it’s just a dog”, then you’ll probably understand phrases like “just a friend”, “just a sunrise” or “just a promise.” “Just a dog” brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust and pure unbridled joy. “Just a dog” brings out the compassion and patience that make me a better person.

For "just a dog" I will get up early, take long walks and look forward to the future. So for me and people like me, it’s not “just a dog,” but an embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future, the memories of the past, and the absolute joy of the moment. “Just a dog” brings out the good in me and takes my thoughts away from myself and daily worries.

I hope one day they can understand that it’s not “just a dog”, but the one that gives me humanity and keeps me from being “just a human.” So the next time you hear the phrase “just a dog”, just smile because they “just don’t get it”.
