Video Of A Dog Being Abandoned Goes Viral And Snoop Dogg Steps Up
A dog being abandoned in the middle of the road is the kind of video that stops people cold, and this one spread fast for all the wrong reasons. Just before Christmas, footage showed a man leaving his dog behind while the animal tried to get back into the car, not realizing it had been left there on purpose.
The clip was shared by RSPCA regional manager Rachel Butler, and the reaction was immediate. People were horrified by what they saw, and the story took an even bigger turn when Snoop Dogg stepped in after the video gained widespread attention.
Now the internet is focused on what happens next.
This is the video.
WARNING: it's really sad.
That footage hit a nerve fast.
The dog was named "Snoop" by the rescue staff who found him in a basket on the side of the road.
RSPCA's press representative told Bored Panda that, "Snoop is such a lovable character who enjoys being around people and gets along well with other dogs. He loves getting close to people, sitting between their legs, and having cuddles, and is certainly enjoying lots of love and affection from our staff."
After the video went viral, many people, including several famous individuals, offered their homes to the dog.
Snoop Dogg included.
Snoop Dogg stated on his official website, "There is always room for another dog in Casa de Snoop. If he really needs a home, then he has one with us. But I don’t think there is going to be any shortage of loving homes after all the exposure he has received." This sentiment is echoed by Dr. Alexandra Solomon, a renowned relationship therapist, who emphasizes the importance of community support in such situations. She notes, "When a pet is in need, it often brings people together, showcasing the compassion and love that exists within our communities."

Other celebrities have offered their homes and love, too.
Here's hoping Snoop finds a loving home soon.
