A trained service dog is surrendered at the shelter in the video. Named Castor, the German Shepherd was a "seizure-response service dog" with a gentle and intelligent personality. But the sweet boy developed skin and ear problems, which is why his owner surrendered him to the shelter. Now, the sweet boy has been waiting for a new home that can understand and care for his condition. In the clip, Castor looks at the person with confusion. He appears to be thinking about how he has ended up in a different environment.
Trained service dog proves he’s a ‘loyal boy’ despite ending up at the shelter
In an emotional dog video on Instagram, a trained service dog named Castor is waiting for a forever home at the shelter. The clip begins with the pooch looking with pitiful eyes, sitting "so proudly." Since his owner surrendered him to the kennel, the pooch has wanted only one thing. "He is still a loyal boy, who just wants to be close to you," an on-screen text reads.
According to the caption, he is a gentle and intelligent pooch who used to be a "seizure-response service dog." But his life took an unexpected turn when he developed intermittent ear and skin problems. It seems his owner was unable to care for his health; thus, they surrendered him to the shelter.
Despite the struggles, Castor is a "sweet boy" and friendly with almost all animals. "Some of his best friends included a cat, a Chihuahua, and even a duck," the caption reads. He is also gentle with humans and can be a good fit for a household with children.
Furthermore, the canine seems to have received some training. "He's very food motivated, and he already knows sit, stay, paw, and up. He'll even scratch at the door to let you know when he needs to go outside," the caption states. Castor is currently housed at the Humane Society of Broward County, Florida.
Meanwhile, the Instagram post has garnered over 250K likes as of now. Netizens also shared their reactions in the comments, asking how a service dog ends up in a shelter. Others expressed interest in adopting him. A few others talked about what a “sweet baby” Castor is, who needs his forever home.
