Adorable Pup Did Everything He Could To Finally Spend A Christmas With A Loving Family 

Christmas is undoubtedly the happiest holiday ever.

Homes across the country come alive with festive charm and are adorned with delightful decorations and filled with the smell of the most delicious food. It’s a season made even more special by the joy of spending quality time with the people who matter most – your family.

Unfortunately, not everybody gets to have these special moments. Some are forced to spend them confined to a kennel inside of an animal rescue center. 

All Alone 

Zorro, an adorable six-year-old pup, has spent most of his time in the kennels of the Humane Society in Naples Florida. And, as much as they take care of him every day, all that Zorro wants is to be in a home of his own. 

Especially during the holiday season. 

“While we don’t have much information about his past, we’ve learned so much about him during his time here,” Naples Humane Society staff member, Patrizia Vila, said in an interview.

Knowing that he is about to spend his fourth Christmas all alone in the shelter, the Naples rescuers are doing everything they can to find the perfect family just for him. 

This also includes posting a video on their TikTok page, urging their followers to help this boy, too.

Meet Zorro, our sweet and smart boy who’s been with us since 2021, patiently waiting for a loving home. 🐾 Despite all the love and care he receives here, nothing compares to the warmth of a real home—and Zorro hasn’t felt that in so long. At 6 years old, Zorro is people-friendly, though he has struggled to make dog friends. He has selectively befriended female dogs but those are far and few between. He’s eager to please and incredibly intelligent, knowing a wide range of commands like sit, stay, come, paw, spin, roll over, and more. He’s also crate-trained, keeps a clean space, and is even housebroken. Zorro is an active and adventurous pup who enjoys being in nature, long walks, car rides (he’s quite the gentleman!), and, of course, cuddles with his favorite humans. He thrives with positive reinforcement training and would make the perfect companion for someone ready to meet their best friend. 🎄 Our hope is to find Zorro his perfect match before Christmas—we know they’re out there! If you’re interested in adopting Zorro, email [email protected]. If you’d like to give him a much-needed break from the shelter by fostering, email [email protected].

Apart from showing him being heartbroken in his kennel, the video also depicts Zorro’s happy side. From listening to commands to chasing a ball to even catching treats in his mouth, Zorro can truly do anything. 

“Zorro is incredibly smart and has learned a variety of commands, including sit, down, wait, stay, come, focus, paw, high five, place, and drop,” she added. 

Looking For A Home To Call My Own 

Being so adorable, Zorro’s video managed to attract thousands of viewers from around the world who were absolutely head over heels for him.

“Please! Way too long for Zorro to be alone for the holidays. He looks like a 100% purebred good boy,” wrote one commentator. 

“2021?? He’s such a handsome boy! I wish I could have a dog in my apt… I truly hope this sweet boy gets his Christmas miracle!!!” stated another. 

Luckily, all of this positive traction resulted in many potential adopters sending inquiries about the sweet boy.

“Our adoption coordinator has been thrilled to receive so many inquiries about Zorro and is currently reviewing them. We’re so hopeful that his perfect match is out there,” she stated. 

As kind and adorable as he is, his new home needs to have only adults in it. Because he spent so many years all alone, he will need a short adjustment period to get comfortable with his new surroundings. 

So, if you are somebody who can provide this for him, feel free to contact [email protected] for more information. 

“Our hope is to find Zorro his perfect match before Christmas—we know they’re out there!” she concluded. 

And even if his Christmas wish didn’t really come true, I’m sure he will be absolutely delighted to get a forever family at any time of the year!
