A shelter dog named Raven got a rainy run after weeks of waiting at Border Tails Rescue. The rescue pup is a female Pit Bull Terrier who became the longest resident after a deaf dog named Mummy’s adoption. Eric and Joey shared the video on Instagram, showing Raven leaving her kennel for a trail run. The account said she prefers a home with no other dogs.
Shelter dog nobody wants to adopt gets to leave kennel, shows exactly why she needed it
Raven’s adoption card in the video lists her as an estimated 4-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix. The post said she arrived with a bad upper respiratory infection alongside her sister. Her sister, Mummy, has since been adopted. That made Raven the longest resident at the rescue, according to the caption.
The video begins with the words, “Running with shelter dogs nobody wants to adopt.” Joey asks if any dogs have “an insane amount of energy” for a run. Raven quickly proves she needs the outing. The transcript says she was “going crazy in the shelter,” and Joey adds that he does not blame her.
Rain makes the moment feel even bigger. Joey says, “God gave us rain today,” as Raven runs through a green trail. The on-screen text says the run brings back childhood memories. He also reminds viewers that many people might stay home in bad weather, but these dogs do not have a choice. Raven’s kennel leave turns into pure movement. She trots down the wet path, looks into the camera, and shows off her floppy ears. The reel then asks viewers to follow for “one ear flop.” After the run, Raven gets dried off with a towel before returning to her space.
The post asks people to comment “Raven” for her adoption page. It also says she should be the only dog in her future home. Viewers reacted with hope and urgency. One wrote, “Let’s find a runner to adopt Raven.” Another added, “Raven deserves the whole world.” A third said, “Look at her blast off!!”
