Tug the lonely Doggo (Picture: SWNS)Tug just wants to find his forever home.
A dog named Tug is struggling to find a forever home because people are put off by his large bat-like ears.
Collie crossbreed Tug was taken in by the RSPCA in the UK after he was found abandoned in terrible condition in September.
Despite making a full recovery, the 12-year-old dog has not had a single enquiry from potential owners in the three months since his rescue.
Staff at Coventry’s RSPCA branch say Tug’s big ears have put people off.
Speaking to Metro.co.uk, Kennel supervisor Danni Holder said:
''When he came in Tug was in such an awful state.
''His coat was badly matted that he had to be completely shaved.
''I suppose this has resulted in his unusual looks and large bat ears.
''It’s sad because he’s an absolutely wonderful dog, he’s old but has a real zest for life.
''He’s been with us for a few months now but he hasn’t had any interest at all. ‘Not a single visitor, phone call, email or like on Facebook.''
We think Tug is very handsome! (Picture: SWNS)Heartbreaking.
''On paper he’s the perfect dog for many families.
''He’s friendly, well-behaved, family-friendly and dog-friendly.
''But no one seems to want him and it’s heartbreaking.
''Tug really is the perfect pooch so it’s strange that he’s had no interest at all.''
Poor Tug! Here's hoping he gets snapped up soon.
