What’s not to love about Pit Bulls? They’re incredibly loyal, they’re huge fans of kisses and when they do that cute little butt-wiggle … we just can’t! But unfortunately, despite the many amazing things about Pits, they are some of the most misunderstood dogs. This is largely because they have gotten a bad reputation for being used in dog fights. The sad fact that abusive people had trained them to fight is commonly overlooked and the dogs end up taking the blame. This tragically leads to many dogs being abused or abandoned, which was the case with Ruby the dog.
Poor Rudy was left in a plastic bucket in NYC. He was extremely emaciated, so weak he couldn’t even walk and was marked with cigarette burns. Luckily, he was found by S.N.A.R.R. Animal Rescue Northeast.
According to the organization, “Rudy was missing almost all of his fur and what was left, was all dead at the root and fell out at his first bath. Rudy had a horrible fracture in his front leg, a tear in his bladder and what we came to find out was untreated Cushings disease. It is a miracle this broken boy survived. Other than being completely terrified and unsure of a kind human hand, Rudy was grateful and nothing but a lovebug from the minute we rescued him.”
Rudy is finally getting the treatment he needs – plus all the love and care he could ever want in his foster home. He still has a long way to go on recovery, but his caretakers are confident he’ll make a full recovery.

Isn’t this great. Hope he enjoys it.
