Frightened Pit Bull Left On The Side Of The Road In Doghouse Waited Patiently For Help

A frightened 9-year-old pit bull named Pebbles was found abandoned, still leashed, in a cage beside a shed in rural California. A passerby reported the scene, and an officer brought her to the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter (SCCAS).

Police later learned Pebbles had been left behind after her owner became homeless a year earlier. Despite her tough past, Pebbles is now safe at the shelter, loved by staff, and waiting for a forever home.

“She has the most beautiful eyes,” one supporter shared. “Even more lovely in person,” said another.

Pebbles is now ready for a second chance at life—with a family who will truly care for her.
