A dog named Quinn went viral on social media after being abandoned at the age of 13, and because of her fame, she's now found a forever home and a furry best friend too.

In a post shared on Facebook in July, by the Pennsylvania SPCA, Quinn can be seen sitting in her kennel, then gently walking toward the volunteers as they get closer to film the clip.

"Quinn is 14 years old. She's been waiting over a year for a home. When will someone notice her?" layover text shown in the clip explains.

The Pennsylvania SPCA told Newsweek that Quinn came to their shelter in June of 2023 after being abandoned in front of their building.

"Her nails were overgrown, she was covered in fleas, riddled with masses, and had a hematoma on her left ear which needed corrective surgery. She remained the happiest dog, but still she sat for over a year looking for a home."

Since going viral, Quinn is no longer looking for a home—in fact, shortly after the clip was posted, the pit bull found her forever family and more!
