✨ Meet James, a remarkable soul who embodies resilience and love! At approximately 3.5 years old and weighing around 22 lbs, this enchanting American Pit Bull Terrier and German Shepherd mix is bursting with potential! 🐶❤️ Let’s talk about his journey. Nearly two years ago, James was wandering the streets of Guadalajara, battling the scars of his tragic past. A caring volunteer named Mayra noticed him and began feeding him, unaware of the challenges he'd faced, including an untreated leg injury and tragic signs of abuse. But don’t let that melancholic backstory fool you! 💔✨ With unwavering dedication, Mayra nurtured him back to health, and boy, does he shine now! James is calm, cool, and collected—a dog who rarely barks but instead looks at the world through a lens of newfound joy. He makes friends easily with other dogs and cats, and while he hasn’t lived with kids, his gentle disposition suggests he would be an excellent family member! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🐕 Now, let’s talk about that gorgeous transformation! James has learned the simple pleasures in life: the feel of soft grass under his paws, a cozy dog bed, and the joy of lounging on the couch. He’s not just house-trained; he’s a master of polite leash walking and loves running in the park, despite his past challenges. 🏞️🐾 James is ready for his forever home in Oregon, where he hopes to find a family that sees him as the extraordinary being he is. He craves consistent love, gentle companionship, and a routine that makes him feel secure. After all he’s overcome, he deserves a family that will appreciate his calming presence and give him the life he’s always deserved. So, if you feel that tug at your heartstrings and see the potential for happiness, know that James is waiting!
