Blimpie had been waiting for 523 days at the Kent County Animal Shelter for a home. But that wait is finally over.
When Blimpie arrived at the Kent County Animal Shelter in Michigan no one thought he would end up becoming a longtime resident.
Blimpie was picked up as a stray in March 2022 when he was found running loose on the streets. Thankfully, Blimpie adjusted to shelter life quite well. He didn’t love playing with other dogs but he did love people and the longer he stayed the more supporters and fans he got among volunteers and staff.
The more shelter volunteers and staff got to know him, the more they wanted him to find a family so they regularly shared news about the American Staffordshire terrier mix’s happy demeanour and playful personality on social media.
One such post shared that the dog has his own “blimpie hug”.
“When he REALLY REALLY loves you, he’ll touch you with his paw and chew on a tennis ball,” the shelter wrote of Blimpie on their Facebook page. But they added, the tennis ball is not for sharing, just for showing as he’s “absolutely obsessed with them.”
