Rescued Pit Bull’s Transformation Caught on Camera!

Ruby Downing, 20, shared a heartwarming video of her rescued pit bull, Bub, and it has since gained over 2.1 million views. The video chronicles the journey of Bub, a 1-year-old dog saved from the euthanasia list, as he transforms from a frightened shelter pup to a joyful, confident companion.

The footage begins with Bub nervously lying on the shelter floor while her husband, Edger, watches over him. Initially, Bub struggled to adjust, avoiding stairs and hiding in the pantry. However, with plenty of love and patience from the couple, Bub blossomed into a happy, playful dog who even enjoys car rides in the front seat.

The video, which has earned 439,000 likes and over 4,900 comments, resonated with viewers. One commenter pointed out Bub’s visible transformation, writing: “The way her white gets whiter, her brown… browner, and her face happier just makes me tear up.”
