Heartbreaking face of puppy left languishing at Ohio animal shelter because she has too much energy

An adorable puppy has been left languishing at an Ohio animal shelter because she has 'too much energy'.

One-year-old Cora is described as a 'bundle of joy wrapped in a fluffy coat' by the Jefferson County Animal Shelter.

But the terrier mix is struggling to find her forever home due to her rambunctious personality, which has already seen her adopted and returned twice.

'She finds herself longing for a home where she can be all that she’s knows how to be, herself,' the shelter explained. 'Cora is a staff favorite because she is always ready to play, followed by cuddles. 

'Sadly, her energetic enthusiasm is what keeps her at the shelter. She can’t understand what she is doing wrong because she is just being herself and isn’t that what they say, “just be yourself “.

 'Well Cora is so bubbly and bouncy and just utterly full of fun and always has us laughing and smiling with her silly antics.'

Cora came to the Winterville shelter back in May and was an instant hit.

'Returned to us through no fault of her own, Cora is now looking for a home that can match her spirited personality,' the shelter explained. 

'She truly is a sweetheart, but just can’t seem to find the right home quite yet.'

Cora would do best in a cat-free home alongside children who are least 12-years-old the shelter said.

She can be picky about other dogs, so a meet-and-greet sniff test is recommended for any prospective owners with other pets. 

Cora has been spayed, microchipped and heartworm tested negative. She is up to date on all core vaccinations and monthly preventions.

Cora and other pets are being put up for adoption as part of a month-long clear the shelter drive
