In Indiana, a shelter dog named Major has lost his sparkle after being rejected by his former family and spending over 260 days in a shelter. Despite his heartbreaking story, the Humane Society for Hamilton County remains hopeful that a perfect family will come along and give Major the love and companionship he deserves.
Major, a 4-year-old terrier/pitbull mix, was taken in as a stray last summer. His original owners were contacted, but they never showed up to reclaim him. Initially, Major was a happy and playful dog, but the constant rejection has taken a toll on his spirit.
The shelter staff described Major as a “sweet and sensitive” dog who loves to play and enjoys his Jolly Ball. However, as time passed, Major’s personality began to fade, and he now spends most of his time crying in his room.
To reduce stress, the shelter has moved Major to the visiting room, but they know that finding him a forever home is the only solution. Major would thrive in a family without young children or cats, and he can get along with other dogs if introduced properly.
If you’re ready to welcome a loving and playful companion into your life, Major might be the perfect fit. You can fill out an application on his adoption page and visit the Humane Society of Hamilton County to meet him.
Let’s help Major find his forever home and restore his sparkle! Share his story to spread the word about this deserving dog.
