This dog was abandoned at a truck stop for five months unable to be rescued.
We discovered this large tan pit bull was stranded there at the truck stop, you know, a very kind and, and gentle dog, but also just wanted to be left, you know, by itself.
Rocky Kanaka:
They even tried trapping JJ, but attempts were unsuccessful. Eventually, they spotted in an enclosed area nearby where Danny believed they could finally rescue JJ.
Danny:
Turns out in the back of the, uh, truck stop where these large fenced in areas, there were a lot of holes in the fencing. A lot of the fencing had had fallen down. JJ had, at that point, started to warm up to me again, so that became our new meeting spot.
He was a little concerned, but he just walked right up to me and I was just able to pet him like nothing had happened. He, he walked on the leash like he had done a million times before in a previous life. It was such a relief and was such a thrill.

I had reached out to a rescue that I had previously worked with and said, Hey, we will talk to this dog. They, in turn contacted Danny and he again, um, reached out to me. He brings me so much joy and he brings so much joy to our family.
“Get’em Ruger! Get him boy, get him Ruger.”
Kristi:
He’s that dog that everybody loves, and the fact that he is willing after who knows what he went through. So just willing to love us and be so kind. And I hope that he knows that he’ll be taking care of for the rest of his life.
