This is Jack — a 9-month-old rescue puppy who has high hopes of finding someone who’ll open their heart and home to him forever.
But just when it seemed his day had finally come, Jack’s hopes were sadly dashed.
Jack is an American bulldog who was taken in as a special needs foster by Peaches Bully Rescue in Ohio. He has spina bifida, which affects his motor skills, and wears a diaper to prevent accidents. But Jack’s an otherwise healthy and happy pup.
The one thing he’s missing most is a family to call his own— though recently, Jack had reason to think he might have found one.
The other day, a potential adopter reached out to say they wanted to get to know Jack in person. So, his rescuers arranged a time and place for them to meet — helping Jack put his best face forward.
But on the day of Jack’s big date, the unthinkable happened. The person never came.
“He had a bath, got his fancy harness on, had a fresh diaper, and a dedicated foster team that drove 40 mins each way just to end in huge disappointment,” rescuers wrote, adding: “Jack was very sad when his meet and greet person was a no-show, no-call.”
The poor pup had been ghosted.
Jack, feeling rejected, needed some cheering up.
A friend who’d heard about what happened decided to buy him a new toy, which Jack appreciated — not knowing at the time that it would end up being just the first of many.
