All dogs require a fantastic family who will love them unconditionally.Unfortunately, many dogs live up without understanding what love is because they are abused by evil people.
These dogs are unhappy and forlorn. All they have is a flicker of hope that someone will save them and offer them the opportunity to find love.Jax was one of the dogs who lived with a harsh owner who mistreated and starved them. Just as Jax had given up hope of finding true love, life presented him with a fresh start.
A Good Samaritan observed an abused and hungry puppy in desperate need of care. They contacted the SMART Saving Missing Animals Response Team, a non-profit group based in Palm Coast, Florida that aids injured and abandoned animals.Caroline Johnson, the founder of the rescue group, hurried to the scene.
Her heart broke as she saw the puppy for the first time. The dog, Jax, couldn’t even stand on his paws. He was really delicate, and his ribs were visible.The dog gazed up at her with very sorrowful eyes, as if begging her to assist him. Johnson scooped Jax up in her arms and wrapped him in a blanket.
She brought him to her car and placed him in the passenger seat. The dog kept getting closer to her, eventually crawling into her lap.Jax could not quit staring at her. The puppy was grateful to Johnson for saving him and showing him kindness and compassion.
Johnson could not stop crying as she drove him to the vet. She feared Jax would not make it. The puppy was really emaciated. He weighed only 21 pounds. He should have weighed about 45 pounds.
The veterinarian assessed that he was about eight months old.
Johnson cradled him in her arms and gently massaged his paw, assuring him that he was no longer alone. Jax felt protected and melted into his rescuer’s arms. For the first time in his life, he sensed that someone cared about him.
She took him home. Jax couldn’t move, and every time he took a few steps, he would fall over and begin trembling.Johnson cuddled with him, and Jax’s sadness began to fade. His lovely brown eyes were full of hope. He wagged his tail and kissed his foster mom. He was prepared to battle for his life.
The dog gradually gained weight and regained strength. A week later, Jax was able to stand on his paws and romp around the backyard.Caroline and his family continued to offer Jax love and care. After a month, the hardy pup had reached 20 pounds.He developed into a strong and confident dog, ready to begin a new life.
Johnson found him a great family who couldn’t wait to dote on him and give him all their love.
As soon as Jax saw his new parents, Eric and Steve, he felt attached to them. He approached them and greeted them with many sweet kisses. His family fell in love with him right away.
Jax’s new family admired him for his ability to forgive and love humans after all the hardships and abuse he went through in his previous home.
Jax lives his best life in Florida. His eyes sparkle with immeasurable happiness because he is loved like never before.
