MY DOGS
10 May
The Pit Bull named Justice is a remarkable dog. He may not have a conventional beauty, but he has an amazing spirit and resilience. Sadly, Justice suffered abuse in his early life and was abandoned to die. But he did not give up on life. The kind staff at the Shelbyville/Shelby County Animal Shelter rescued him and gave him the medical care and affection he deserved to flourish.
Justice overcame incredible challenges with his unbreakable spirit. He was found roaming the streets of Indiana with severe chemical burns all over his body, which seemed to be a result of intentional harm. But the shelter staff did not lose hope for him. They treated his wounds, covered him in bandages, and witnessed his skin healing.
Gradually, with love, care, and patience, Justice recovered. His fur grew back, and he slowly regained his energy. He will never look like he used to, but the shelter staff adores him as he is.
After a year of medical care and training, Justice was ready to find a new home. His story moved people from around the world, and he soon found a new family. Because of his special needs, the shelter only accepted applications from within 100 miles to make sure he could get any future treatments he might need.
Justice's new parents became his biggest supporters and posted updates about his progress on the shelter's page. Despite his traumatic past, Justice learned to trust and love again.
Training Justice was not easy, but his amazing trainer, Lexi, worked hard with him for more than a year. Her patience and commitment paid off, and Justice fell in love with her. He now follows her instructions more easily and has only one training session left with her.
His new home has given Justice a flourishing life. He enjoys showing his affection and asking for his parents to rub his tummy. This is a vulnerable gesture for most dogs, but Justice has learned that his humans will always protect and love him.
