You can tell this sweet boy’s face is still a mess. He will always carry the wounds of his horrible attack, yet he is sweet as can be!

After 3 months, Look how amazing Rufus looks! And he has a dog pal!! Rufus is doing amazing! He’s such a wonderful child who everyone falls in love with!

6 months since rescue: Now Rufus’s a fast learner. He figured if he enters inside the kitchen he will receive food faster

He is finally feeling like a regular dog. I’m very thrilled that, even after all he went through, he still can play.
