Shelter Dog Desperate For Adoption Tries To Hold Hands With Everyone Passing By His Kennel!

All Speck’s ever wanted is to be loved!

Sadly, life hasn’t always been simple for this cute puppy and Speck has, unfortunately, had to defend himself on the streets.

But despite having a difficult upbringing, this little guy has not allowed his heart to grow harden.

Speck has just ever desired someone to hold on to.

The last year of Speck’s life was spent at the Alabama shelter run by the Bullock County Humane Society.

Speck has been able to win over everyone at the shelter with his lovely nature.

Speck has been sticking out his little hand whenever someone has walked by his cattery, and nobody’s been able to resist giving him some love.

“All he wants is peoples love. He will reach his little hand out and he just wants you to touch him and hold his hand,” Desiray Miracle-Wilder, the shelter’s director.



Since Speck adores people so much, not even other animals can divert his attention while he is focused on a human.

He just wants to show love to every person he meets and craves any type of affectionate touch.

The shelter shared a video on Facebook of Speck playing with people’s hands to show off what a beautiful and affectionate boy he is. The video instantly gained popularity.

It just took three days for Speck’s life to dramatically change as a result of all the likes and shares.

Allie’s Hope For Paws Dog Rescue saw Speck’s video and decided to help Speck find his forever home.

They reached out to Bullock County Humane Society and informed that they had found the perfect forever home for Speck; a loving family with a 26-acre farm!



The family already has two puppies who are soon going to be Speck’s new doggy brothers.

Speck will finally receive the love and attention he so richly deserves and requires, and he will enjoy a lovely life playing with his two new siblings and roaming around the farm.

And Speck’s luck has been life changing for so many other pets; since his video went viral, several other pups at the shelter have also found their forever loving home.

We’re so happy for Speck and all the other little furbabies.
