Shelter Makes Plea for People to Stop Overlooking Senior Dogs
They have so much love to give.
TikTok user @pawsfriendnetwork is an account dedicated to helping paraplegic, amputee, wheelchair and senior shelter dogs find homes. And their recent video is acting as a plea for people to stop overlooking senior dogs.
Between puppies being the most popular and stigmas surrounding bully breeds, oftentimes shelters are filled with certain senior shelter dogs. And those dogs, unfortunately, have odds stacked against them, the TikToker wrote in the caption. This video is intended to show people how special these animals are because they deserve as many opportunities as other dogs.

Wow, this is such an important message. Statistically, large senior bullies are least likely to make it out of a shelter and that breaks our hearts. This one video of Noodle is just a glimpse into how wonderful these kinds of dogs are.
“Senior dogs are amazing. You get all the love without the puppy training headaches,” commented @mperera6. So true! It’s a win-win! @her_cheekiness added, “Bullies are amazing friends. These seniors don’t deserve to be overlooked. This guy is beautiful.” You can say that again! No kind of dog should ever be overlooked. They all deserve love and forever families!
And can we just take a second to acknowledge how adorable Noodle is?! Just look at him playing with all his toys! @shnorgles wrote, “How does he still not have a home? This is heartbreaking. I’m obsessed with this boy!” SAME! The TikToker responded by saying that he isn’t quite adoptable yet as he’s still recovering from surgery. Aww! We just know as soon as he is available, his forever family will pick him up right away!
