He Struggled In An Animal Shelter After His Dad Went To Jail And Abandoned Him, But He Just Found A New Family
Bunny’s Buddies is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded by a woman named Amanda Jo and her husband, Kyle.
Bunny’s Buddies is dedicated to rescuing dogs in need, including ones left on the street to fend for themselves or stuck in slaughterhouses or on meat trucks over in Asia.
In a TikTok video shared to their account @bunnysbuddies, the organization recently spotlighted a dog named George, who sadly landed in an animal shelter here in America after his dad went to jail and abandoned him.
“George Il was abandoned by his owner after they went to jail and never came back from him!” Bunny’s Buddies exclaimed alongside adorable clips of George.
“How sad is that!? He has officially been with us for 4 months now without one solid application! When I first saw him, l was sure people would be begging to adopt him, but so far, that has not been the case.”
“All he’s had was an adopter that backed out on him at the last second…he deserves SO much better!”
George was pulled from a shelter in Tennessee after his owner never came back to get him, even though he was released from jail.
Bunny’s Buddies organized for George to head over to Omaha, Nebraska, to live with a foster family.
The clips of George show him getting loved on by the kids in his foster family, and Bunny’s Buddies said he’s the best boy ever.
Bunny’s Buddies shared the video of George, hoping to find him a home for the holidays. Luckily, their spotlight on George landed him a new family! On November 1st, in a Facebook post, Bunny’s Buddies said that George finally found a family to call his own after waiting patiently for months.
“As you can see in these pics, George is sad and confused, and it’s not because his new family is bad or strange; it’s that this is yet another BIG change for him. While George will be happy again soon, right now he is confused,” Bunny’s Buddies wrote in the post.
“He has been fostered with one of our homes for the last 3 months so today, he feels like he just lost another home… again. Just as he was starting to settle in, just as he was getting comfy, he lost it all.”
“These dogs have no idea that we are a dog rescue, that those people were just a foster, and that these new people are his new forever family. We cannot communicate that to them, so they are confused and sad.”
Bunny’s Buddies went on to say this is exactly why they prefer to find their rescue dogs loving homes instead of putting them with fosters.
That way, their dogs won’t have to wonder why they’re bouncing around from one place to the next.
Bunny’s Buddies prepares adopters to understand where dogs like George are coming from. They can fail to quickly form connections with their new owners since they don’t understand what’s happening.
“George will get there. It will take a little time, but he will get there, and it’ll all be worth it!” Bunny’s Buddies continued.
“We also gift all of our adopters a free call with our animal communicator to let them know what is going on. It sounds crazy, but it’s helped so many of them!”
Thankfully, George was able to land a wonderful new home, and Bunny’s Buddies does have other dogs for adoption that you can take a look at on their TikTok page.
