The beginning Benji broke my heart. What a wonderful mum he's got now, though. YAY FOR BENJI! 🤗

He reminds me of Patrick, the emaciated pittie "The miracle dog" from 2011.

These stories are so emotional.

Probably a dog used, or potentially used for fighting?

I turned in one of these rednecks that used a dog for fighting. I am not sure what he was charged with, but his ass was definitely shut down.

I hope, but doubtful the little Pittie was taken care of after I turned them in. Probably euthanized

What a trigger for me!
