Adorable Special Needs Dog Goes Viral For Being Ghosted By His Potential Adopters
It’s a rude thing to ghost someone, but to ghost a special needs dog that needs a loving home? That’s a whole new low, and it sadly happened to 9-month-old Jack, an American Bully.
Peaches Bully Rescue stepped in to save Jack, who came to them when his owners weren’t able to provide him with the emergency care he needed.
“Luckily, he did well recovering from multiple surgeries and has mastered a diaper system,” Peaches Bully Rescue explained on their website.
“His beautiful coloring and love for following humans around makes him the cutest ever!”
Jack was born with spina bifida, which is a birth defect that happens when the spinal cord and spine fail to properly form.

Due to this birth defect, Jack is incontinent and he wears diapers 24/7. One of the vets involved with caring for Jack said this will be something Jack will go through for the rest of his life.
Jack can stand up a bit and walk around, but he can’t do it for very long and isn’t up to going out for walks. He does love cuddling up on the couch and playing with toys though, and that’s something he is always up for!
On January 22nd, Jack got all ready to meet a family that was interested in adopting him. Unfortunately, they never even showed up to see him.

“Jack was very sad when his meet and greet person was a no show, no call,” Peaches Bully Rescue shared in a Facebook post.

“He had a bath, got his fancy harness on, had a fresh diaper, and a dedicated foster team that drove 40 mins each way just to end in huge disappointment.”
“Obviously, that wasn’t his family. Morgan, the nice lady from Cabela’s, bought him a new toy to help him forget this experience. Thank you!! Your family will come sweet boy and when they do, they will be perfect.”
“Respect that we are all volunteers and just trying to give this guy his best chance. Not showing up or calling is bad form.”
Jack’s post went viral, and over 25,000 people shared his sad story.
Less than one month later, Jack finally found a loving family to take him home, and they even got him his own Instagram account that you can check out here.
