For the past year, senior dog has spent day in and day out in shelter kennel

For over a year, a senior dog named Lox has spent nearly 24 hours a day locked away inside of a kennel run at an animal shelter in Amityville, New York. A dog who wants to love and be loved is existing in a sad state of loneliness because nobody seems to want him.

On September 2, a social media post was created on Lox’s behalf:

IMAGINE… YOU WERE A SENIOR
AND FOR 23 1/2 HOURS A DAY
YOU LIVED IN A KENNEL
AND HAVE BEEN LIVING THERE OVER A YEAR
WELL THAT IS WHAT LIFE IS LIKE FOR LOX😢

MY NAME IS LOX
I AM ALMOST 10 YEARS OLD
I HAVE BEEN IN THE SHELTER 1 YEAR💔

Lox is described as a “gentle” dog with a soft personality. When Lox was first taken in at the Babylon Animal Shelter, he had a chain, with a lock, around his neck – life has obviously not been easy for this unfortunate dog.

Finding Lox a home
