Countless dogs are abused and neglected by their owners. Some are kept chained or kept in small cages outside the house without any roof to protect them from the weather. Thankfully, animal rescue organizations are working hard to get these dogs out of their horrible situations.
A dog named Journey has never known happiness or love in his entire life. He was abused by his owner and kept outside in a cage that had no roof or even enclosure to protect him from the heat, rain, or cold. Because he’s a Pit Bull, he is always seen as an aggressive or violent dog by people in the neighborhood.
Journey was eventually rescued from his abusive owner by animal control officers. Although the conditions at the animal shelter were far better than what he had before, it still wasn’t what he deserved. Journey needed a home environment with a loving human to teach him what love and family are all about.
Thankfully, a woman named Nicole learned about Journey’s story. She could feel that deep inside, Journey is a gentle and loving dog that’s just waiting to come out. Nicole decided to foster him and show him a life he deserved and never had before.
Nicole stated that every single day that he spent with Journey was amazing. Nicole witnessed how Journey came out of his shell and turned into the most affectionate and funniest dog she had ever fostered. Soon after Journey felt love and happiness, he took this chance to make up for all the years he lost being kept in a cage.
Journey’s staring habits were a little concerning for Nicole. However, after taking him to the veterinarian to get checked, she found out that Journey was actually deaf. This explained why his bark was so loud and why he stared at people.
Two months after fostering Journey, Nicole eventually felt that she bonded with Journey. After knowing about Journey’s condition, Nicole felt even more sure that Journey needed a family who could take care of his special needs. Eventually, she decided to make him a part of her family permanently. Here’s a video featuring Journey’s heartwarming story.
