Life in a shelter can be difficult for animals, especially if they’re used to being house pets where they get the love and attention from humans every day. One dog who has spent a year in a shelter is reaching out to anyone who will give him even a little bit of attention. He desperately wants a new home where someone will love him.

This dog will put his paw out of his cage anytime someone walks by at the shelter. He is seeking love from anyone who will offer it. As he reaches out his paw, he’s begging people to just notice him and give him some human attention.

Watch the video to see the adorable footage of this dog asking for attention and human interaction.

Who could resist that sweet gesture?
