Duncan, a pit bull-terrier mix, was found abandoned on a porch in the wake of Hurricane Irma. When rescuers found him, he was covered in wounds thought to be inflicted by the storm.
Now in a shelter, Duncan seems understandably depressed. But as this video from Inside Edition shows, kind shelter workers are there to give him lots of hugs and kisses to cheer him up as he waits for a new home.
