Dog T-Rex returned to shelter repeatedly since 2022
Key Points
  • T-Rex has been returned to shelters repeatedly since 2022 due to owner's housing instability.
  • The 11-year-old dog spent Christmas in the shelter after being turned in just before the holiday.
  • T-Rex is described as sweet and gentle, has recovered from an eye infection, and has some skin issues.

According to multiple reports, T-Rex, an 11-year-old dog, has been in and out of shelters numerous times since 2022 because his owner struggles with housing instability. He was most recently turned in right before Christmas after the owner said they lost their housing, and T-Rex spent the holiday in the shelter.

A TikTok account for the shelter described T-Rex as a "sweet and gentle" dog who has done well with other dogs in playgroups. The account noted that the shelter environment is especially hard on senior dogs, and that T-Rex recently recovered from an eye infection. He also has some bumps and skin issues, according to the shelter.

It is unclear what breed or mix T-Rex is, where the shelter is located, or whether he has been adopted since the article was published. The specific housing issues faced by the owner and any additional medical conditions beyond the eye infection and skin issues are also unknown.
