An upset pooch is so unloved she has been forced to watch over FORTY of her four-legged mates get picked by new owners instead of her.

Betsy, a whippet lurcher cross, has had to stand by as her doggie pals leave to go to new homes one after another.

She had allegedly been beaten by her owner when she was just a four-month-old pup.

The unwanted dog, tow, has been looked after by the RSPCA ever since, for over 600 days.

Staff said she is a bit of a “goofball” and is scared of everything due to her past.

But they said it “breaks their hearts” that no one wants her.

Betsy is petrified of things like waking up somewhere new or getting into a vehicle.

It has made it hard for her to be adopted.

Betsy is currently at the Great Ayton Animal Centre, in the village of Great Ayton, North Yorks, as reported by What’s The Jam.

An RSPCA spokesperson said: “Betsy is now the longest-staying dog by almost a year.

“In that time, she has seen more than 40 of her kennel mates go off to their new homes.

“Including a Patterdale spaniel cross called Buzz, who was also rescued from the same house.”

Emma Cosby, Behavior Welfare Advisor at Great Ayton, said: “Despite numerous appeals, beautiful Betsy still hasn’t had much luck finding a home, she’s our longest-staying dog by some distance and her story breaks our hearts.

“Understandably, after her long stay here and background history she can find new experiences scary, but she is slowly but surely overcoming her fears and she’s made incredible progress since she’s been here.

“She’s starting to gain confidence and is now desperately in need of a supportive, loving home with a family who have the time to help her through some of her anxieties and continue her ongoing training.

“She’s a big, loveable goofball who loves to zoom around, but she’s always grateful for a snuggle on the sofa with people she’s familiar with.

“We always say that when you take on a rescue dog you not only change that animal’s life for the better but you also transform your own, and we know that whoever gives Betsy a chance is going to have a companion who will give them unconditional love, companionship and loyalty.”
