An Instagram video shows a shelter dog that has been watching the world go by from a kennel for 542 days. Not a single human has come forward to adopt the adorable three-year-old pooch. He has been waiting for someone to choose him, and until then, he may have to continue his life at the shelter. Despite the difficult life at the kennel, a volunteer mentions in the caption that the dog remains a "sweet, loving boy." Named Donnie, the canine can be seen sitting quietly with a ball in his mouth. He appears to watch the other side of the kennel.

Shelter dog watches life from his kennel when all he ever wanted were long walks and cuddles

In an emotional dog video on Instagram, a shelter dog named Donnie has been staying at the kennel for over a "year and seven months." Through on-screen text, the uploader tells the pooch’s story. It reads, "Life is not fair. For 542 days, Donnie has watched the world go by from inside a kennel, waiting for someone to choose him."

According to the caption, the fur baby appears to have undergone a "traumatic journey" at a young age. Living as a shelter dog, things can be difficult for a three-year-old. But the pooch remains a loving and kind boy. Furthermore, Donnie has not lost hope and has been waiting for someone to adopt him.

"Donnie deserves long walks, a cozy bed, and endless cuddles. He is desperately searching for his person," the caption further reads. He seems to be looking for a family that will never give up on him. 

Meanwhile, his story has touched viewers' hearts. Many have commented on the post, urging the right people to "save him." A user wrote, "Breaks my heart. He deserves the world. They all do." Many dropped heart and praying emojis, expressing their thoughts in the comments.
