Animal shelters are full of adoptable dogs and cats just waiting for their special someone to take them home. Sadly, some spend months or years waiting and the stressful shelter life starts to take a toll on them.

Aramis has been waiting at Humane Society of Broward County in Florida for over 165 days for someone to pick him. The shelter does their best to interact with each pet and give them time outdoors, but it doesn't compare to a loving family.

The shelter noticed the 2-year-old bully mix was starting to show signs of depression and frustration, even though they have been giving him plenty of walks and spoiling him with tasty treats.

@humanebroward Oh Aramis 🥺 This gorgeous boy has sadly been waiting since last Fall for his forever home. We try to keep his spirits up with walks and treats, but he’s starting to give up hope and it’s breaking our hearts 💔 Aramis is very sweet and friendly. He’s also smart and athletic. He loves to play catch and fetch. He is just longing for that sporty partner to call his bestie! #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #adoptme #shelterdog #rescuedog #dog #dogsoftiktok #florida #fortlauderdale #bullybreeds #adoption ♬ original sound - Humane Society Broward County

"He’s starting to give up hope and it’s breaking our hearts," stated the shelter on TikTok. They went on to share more about the handsome pup, "Aramis is very sweet and friendly. He’s also smart and athletic. He loves to play catch and fetch. He is just longing for that sporty partner to call his bestie!"

They decided to boost his spirits by taking him for a much-needed day trip to the park. The energetic fella had a blast smelling all the new smells and stretching his legs.

Aramis would love to find an active partner who will take him along on hikes and other outdoor adventures. A video posted by the shelter on TikTok shows just how happy Aramis is to be out of the shelter, even if it was for just the day.

@humanebroward Aramis! ❤️ Our most handsome underdog Aramis, who has been waiting over 165 days for a home, had a big day out at the park ❤️ Shelter life is taking a toll on this curious 2-year-old fellow. He’s getting frustrated and depressed. This is never good for a shelter dog 💔 Aramis is a great dog that loves to explore and would be a great hiking partner. Can he be your new adventure buddy? 🙏 #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #dog #adopt #dogsoftiktok #adoptme #rescuedog #florida #pittiesoftiktok #staffy #dogs ♬ original sound - Humane Society Broward County
