When animals experience brutality, they frequently lose hope in happiness and give up on life.
When Sanford arrived at a Texas shelter, he was seen as a “broken dog.” He had been run over, but his right leg had also been shot.
He continued to stand in the shelter’s corner without turning to face anyone.
However, he hasn’t stopped grinning since a foster mom took him home and introduced him to her other foster dogs.
He is the happiest dog Karen Velazquez, the foster mother, has ever encountered.
Karen told The Dodo, “I am currently on my 52nd foster, and I can honestly say that I’ve never had somebody as joyful as him.”
“He stares at me in a manner that no other animal or person, even my own pets, has ever looked at me.” In essence, the only times he is not grinning are when he is eating or napping.
Animal control authorities discovered him by the side of the road after he had been struck by a car and had also sustained a bullet wound to his right hind leg.
He reminds me of an elderly man you might encounter at a nursing facility. He may be 95 years old. But Kerry observed that he behaves as though he is in his 50s.
“He’ll make a wonderful family dog,” she continued. He will get along with all people and canines. He is even good with children.
