Tracy Korfhage, the co-founder of MisPits and Friends Rescue, received a distress call from a concerned citizen about a Pit Bull lying on her porch. The homeowner was not sure if the dog was still alive, so she tried to contact the animal rescue group for assistance.
Tracy said that she does not usually get dogs off the streets because of the possible risks that she could encounter, but something about the Pit Bull’s face made her want to help. Tracy recalled that the way that the pittie looked up to her broke her heart.

The Pit Bull looked so defeated and appeared to have given up on life. Tracy and the homeowner were surprised when the dog used all of her remaining strength to stand up and greet them.
Tracy recalled that the pittie smelled like she was rotting from the inside out., but the Pit Bull still managed to walk around to sniff the people who approached her. The dog must have thought that she will finally receive the help she needs.
The homeowner felt scared when the dog went closer to her, but Tracy reassured her that the Pit Bull was too weak to do anything. The dog started to wag her tail and immediately sat beside the people who were about to help her.
Tracy believed that the dog would not survive much longer, so she decided to help the sweet dog get better. Tracy’s rescue partner brought the Pit Bull to animal control in case someone wanted to get her, but no one came to pick her up.
The pit bull quickly gained weight after one week of being rescued. Tracy wanted the dog to find her fur-ever family, so she asked a volunteer photographer to take pictures of the pittie.
Sebastian and Ashtyn Garrison saw the Pit Bull’s photo and immediately decided that they wanted to have her. The married couple could not help but feel happy that their family is finally complete, and it is all thanks to their new dog, Lakita.
