Just a few days before Christmas, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier was left by the side of the road in Stoke-on-Trent, England, in what British animal charity the RSPCA called a “callous and cruel” act.

The dog, who has since been named Snoop, touched hearts around the world, and received hundreds of offers for a new home, according to the BBC, including some from celebrities like TV presenters Sue Perkins, Andrew Neil, and, apparently, Snoop Dogg.

“The footage has to be seen to be believed — it’s just awful,” Inspector Natalie Perehovsky said at the time. “To see the poor dog in such obvious distress jumping up at the car as it drives away it just heartbreaking.”

Snoop immediately had a lot of fans at the RSPCA, including the regional manager Rachel Butler who asked “How could anyone heartlessly abandon him?”

Thanks to the media attention of Snoop’s story, he has been inundated with offers from people wanting to adopt him.

According to the RSPCA, he is not yet ready to be adopted, but hopefully will be soon when the investigation is over and he has been assessed for his best living environment.

It should come as no surprise that the rapper (and human) Snoop Dogg is a big fan of pooches. When he heard about the story, he was quick to offer a home to his namesake.

“There is always room for another dog in Casa de Snoop,” he reportedly told UK tabloid The Daily Star.

“If he really needed a home then he has one with us… But I don’t think there is going to be any shortage of loving homes after all the exposure he has got.”

An RSPCA spokesperson told the Huffington Post UK that Snoop (the dog) is due to move to a rehoming centre this week, then formal applications will start.

“We are so grateful to all the millions of people who has shared his story across the world,” they said.
