Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, has recently shared that Juney, an inspiring dog who has been through so much in his short life, has been waiting months for his forever family to find him to avail. Juney's story is one of remarkable resilience and the unwavering spirit of a dog who has overcome unimaginable adversity.

Juney's early life was marred by severe trauma. He was beaten and brutally attacked with a machete, leaving him with a fractured jaw and significant damage to his mouth and nose. The cruelty he endured is almost unimaginable, yet Juney's spirit remained unbroken. When Sandy Paws Rescue Inc. learned of him, they knew they had to intervene and offer him a chance at a better life.

Juney's path to recovery was fraught with difficult decisions. Initially, veterinarians suggested re-fracturing Juney's jaw to correct the damage, but the procedure carried significant risks and would have been extremely traumatic. After careful consideration and spending time with Juney, the team at Sandy Paws Rescue Inc. opted for dental surgery instead, they explain. "After spending time with Juney, we realized that with dental surgery alone, his quality of life would improve greatly. At this point, his injuries are cosmetic and do not cause him pain and his dental surgery has allowed him to eat more comfortably."

Juney's rehabilitation extended beyond his physical injuries. He needed time to adjust and learn to trust again. Slowly but surely, he began to show his true personality. Juney requires gradual introductions with other dogs and is good in the company of children, preferably over the age of seven. He is well-behaved on a leash, enjoys long walks, and cherishes the simple pleasure of being petted while sitting next to his owner at home.

Juney's journey highlights the importance of patient and compassionate ownership. He has been through so much, yet his capacity for love and companionship remains intact. Sandy Paws Rescue Inc. is dedicated to finding Juney a forever home where he can continue to heal and thrive. Juney's story is a powerful reminder of the resilience of animals and the transformative impact of kindness and care. Don't let Juney's scars from his dark path deter you from his beautiful and sweet soul.

Those interested in adopting Juney will be happy to learn he is house-trained. When it comes to crates he doesn't like them, but his foster family is confident he can learn.

Juney is currently waiting to have a house lined up here in Massachusetts so he can be transported from where he is currently waiting in Texas. Juney is available for those interested in a foster-to-adopt program as well, with a completed adoption application.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc. requires that anyone interested in adopting must submit an application to them. As a foster-based rescue based in Massachusetts, they don’t have a shelter location, and visits with dogs are by appointment only. Their dogs reside in private homes or kennels until adoption.
