Sky the rescue dog arrived at Virginia’s Stafford County Animal Shelter in November and didn’t receive any adoption interest until the shelter posted a plea regarding the dog on Facebook
It’s a good week for Sky, a 3-year-old dog, who finally found her forever home after her picture went viral.
The adorable canine arrived at Virginia’s Stafford County Animal Shelter in November but still hadn’t received a single adoption application or visit by Feb. 27. Instead, she watched her canine companions leave with forever families while she received no attention from visitors.
“No one has sent an email. No one has called about her. No one asks to visit with her. We have posted her multiple times … Still nothing,” explained the shelter in a Facebook plea sharing Sky’s image and situation on Monday.
At the time, Sky was one of the shelter’s longest-term residents. Joe Bice, the captain of the Stafford County Animal Shelter, told WSET that potential adopters often overlooked the pup because she needed to be the only dog in the home.
In its Monday Facebook post, the shelter added that Sky is great with people and “a wonderful companion.” She “just needs a chance,” the shelter added. The post, which featured a photo of Sky in her shelter kennel, received over 60,000 shares and close to 5,000 comments.

“The phone has been ringing off the hook all morning, a ton of messages and so many we can’t even get back to them,” Bice told WSET about the skyrocketing interest in the dog after the Facebook post went up.
