READ HIS STORY ⬇️ Today, while I was volunteering at the shelter, one of the officers asked if I could make a video for a puppy because this was already his fourth time at the shelter… I couldn’t believe what I had just heard. 🥺 Then she told me that Kingston is only six months old and has already been adopted and returned three times. Apparently, he first arrived at the shelter as a stray when he was only four months old. A family adopted him and later returned him, saying that he had too much energy. After that, he was adopted once again and brought back because, once again, he had too much energy and they just couldn’t keep up with him. The third time he was adopted, he was returned yet again. This time, they said that he had too much energy and that they were moving. I honestly don’t even know what to say. I couldn’t believe it, and my heart broke for Kingston. 💔😭 I took him on a walk and made this video for him today. I spent a long time with him, and during the entire visit, he was one of the sweetest puppies. He was just so happy to be surrounded by people. At one point, Kingston grabbed a toy and decided that he wanted to bring it with us on our walk… and he did. For the entire walk, he proudly carried his toy everywhere he went. He is only six months old. He is not “too much.” He is a puppy!!! Puppies need patience. They need training. They need time to learn and grow… And despite everything he has been through in his short life, Kingston still greets the world with a wagging tail, a toy in his mouth, and hope that someone out there will finally keep him forever. If you think that person could be you, Kingston is waiting...🙏🏻❤️ • • #adopt #puppy #dog #story #pitbull
