Pups are known to be friendly and loving. However, that is not always the case for some dogs who have gone through rough times in their life. While most dogs easily get along with humans, it takes lots of time for others to trust, just like a 10-year-old pup named Mica.
Mica is a labrador mix who has been staying at a shelter in Ohio since November 30, 2014. Throughout Mica’s 2,300 days in the shelter, he has watched countless dogs get adopted while he stayed inside his kennel. Fortunately, the staff members at the shelter are doing all they can to find the perfect family for the senior pup.
Due to Mica’s rough start in life, he has developed trust issues and is wary of people he meets for the first time. Hundreds of potential adopters who live all over the United States have shown interest in adopting Mica. But the staff at the shelter are extra careful when evaluating adoption applications for the senior pup.
On the shelter’s Facebook page, a post was made about Mica, informing everyone interested in the pup that he needs not just any dog-loving person but also a patient and attentive one. Despite Mica’s long wait in finding the perfect home for him, the staff members at the shelter make sure to shower him with lots of love and care. And throughout the many years that the staff members have spent with the pup, they have been able to gain the pup’s trust and form a loving bond with him.
Whenever the shelter is closed, the staff members would let Mica roam around freely, and the pup even gets to go on regular chicken nugget trips with some of them. Although he can be picky when it comes to opening up to people, the staff members are confident that Mica will soon find the perfect family for him. Mica is looking for an adult-only family who is ready to show unconditional love to him.
