Misjudged as “scary,” an adorable shelter dog named Casper has been eagerly waiting for a second chance at a forever loving family.

On June 2, @evelyn.garces._ shared the fur baby’s story through a heartwarming video on Instagram. Since then, it has started to gain a lot of attention from people all around the world.
‘Sweet’ shelter dog gets misjudged as ‘scary’ when he has only ever hoped for a family
A heart-melting video on Instagram showed a shelter dog who is “sweet” and only hopes for a loving forever home, yet is misjudged as “scary.” The video has captured the hearts of many online. The caption of the post read, “Casper is one of our longest residents, and one of the sweetest dogs I’ve ever met.” It continued, “The whole time I was with him, I kept saying how much he reminds me of my own dog—which only made me love him more.”
The volunteer further penned in the caption, “He’s a big dog, and from behind kennel bars he can look a little intimidating.” The person continued, “But the reality is that Casper spends most of his time quietly standing there, hoping someone will finally choose him.” The caption further read, “Somehow, a dog this gentle has been overlooked again and again.”
The Instagram video began by giving a closer look at the shelter dog, Casper. He was standing behind the kennel door, eagerly waiting for someone to trust him and give him a loving home. Meanwhile, the text written over the clip read, “Casper has hoped for a family longer than most of our dogs.”
As the video went on, viewers could see that he was next in line for euthanasia. People clearly failed to see how “sweet” the fur baby actually is. The fur baby’s gentle and friendly nature will melt anyone’s heart.
