But Rush soon found that it wasn’t that easy. Dog after dog got adopted, but Rush never got picked. Because he’s a pit bull, many people assume he’s a “bad dog”. They think he’s dangerous and aggressive, even though everyone who’s spent some time with him knows how wrong that is. But when everyone sees you as a bad dog, it can be difficult to remember who you really are.

Rush was beginning to fear that he was unlovable – that he would never be seen as anything else but a bad dog and that he would never find a family. But Rush decided to not give up. He decided that he was going to prove to everyone that he was a good boy and worthy of adoption.So, one day, just before potential adoptive parents would be visiting the shelter, Rush made his own bed. Volunteers at the rescue saw him carefully tuck his sheet around his bed to make it look nice and presentable. And this adorable display soon proved to not be a one-time occurrence; Rush kept making his bed each day in the hopes that someone would realize his worth.
