With Aardvark, what you see is what you get: a goofy, adorable pup who’s as beautiful inside as he is out.

In January, Aardvark was found as a stray by a Good Samaritan on the streets of Baltimore City and brought right into the Maryland SPCA (MDSPCA). The sanctuary staff couldn’t believe what they saw– a 50-pound dog with a face out of a cartoon and paws like flippers.

” Honestly, no one could take him seriously,” Brittany Roger, a digital expert for the MDSPCA, informed The Dodo. “His face and his personality inspired a great deal of giggles.”

An exam with the shelter’s veterinarians exposed that Aardvark was still a puppy, at just 8 months old, which his small lower jaw had been with him from birth. “Many people assume that he’s been via some kind of accident,” Roger said. “But they’re rapidly relieved to find out that he was just born that beautiful.”

Aardvark’s face deformity never seems to trouble him or get in the way of him being a very good kid. “Not only does he eat well, however he likewise likes to chew on points– though not destructively,” Roger said. “He’s happy and healthy, that makes his goofiness much more endearing.”

The only point better than Aardvark’s wonderful face is his easygoing character. The unique pup just seems thankful to be around people who care for him and enjoy his company.

” He’s an energetic, pleased, social little guy,” Roger said. “We have so much fun dressing him up and taking him places because nothing really bothers him.”

Sadly, finding a permanently house hasn’t been easy for Aardvark. Though the shelter describes him as a “one-size-fits-all” canine who’s “so chummy that [he] could make friends with a brick wall,” possible adopters keep letting him down.

” He has obtained a couple of applications and for one reason or one more they maintain failing,” Roger said. “It’s not his mistake, however he’s struck out with bad luck.”

Ideally, Aardvark will locate a winner quickly and have the ability to give all his love to someone who appreciates him for the unique dog he is
