A blind, 4-year-old pit bull from New Mexico faced unfathomable abuse before a loving couple took him away from his misery.
“As soon as I saw him, I just knew he was my puppy,” Alex Goslow told New Mexico's KRQE.
Raj spent three years of his life tied with a chain in what's believed to have been a junkyard, much like Cora, the dog who was rescued from a backyard without food and water. The pit bull, who gets by without eyes (like Smiley the dog), miraculously also survived being poisoned.
All it took for Goslow and her boyfriend to fall in love with Raj was seeing a video of him made by the Animal Humane Society.
“The next day we decided to go to Animal Humane and we picked him up,” she said.
It didn't take long for Raj to become accustomed to his new home and fall in love with his owners, as seen in the heartwarming video below. His loving family also put a doggy-door in their house which the pooch learned to navigate quickly.
“I think the world is a better place with Raj in it, so I am glad we could provide that for him,” Goslow added.
