(WALB) A unique puppy is winning internet fame after being picked up by a Georgia Humane Society.
Rami is a year old Dachshund-Pit Bull mix.
A man spotted Rami in his yard last week and described him as a “pit bull with short legs.”
He has been at the Moultrie Colquitt County Humane Society for nine days now.
“It is a true Pit bull head on a Dachshund body,” says Humane Society President Dawn Blanton.
When the Humane Society went to social media to find Rami a home they were shocked by what happened next.
“We posted a photo of him when he became available. And within a day it went to one million hits. And by that night it was up to two million. And now it is over 2.4 million hits,” Blanton says.
But with all this media attention, they want to make sure Rami goes to the right home; avoiding adopters who may want to exploit him based on his one-of-a-kind look.
