What makes a dog look mean is just beyond my understanding Yet whenever people looked at Sully a 5monthold Pittie they saw this mean aggressive bully leading them to avoid him at all costs

All they really had to do was spend five minutes with him Thats right Five minutes is all it would have taken

Still Sully had to wait day after day in his smallest jail cell of a cage He went to sleep every night hoping that someone would eventually recognize how adorable he truly was

Then one day that one special person appeared and she changed his whole life

He Struggled At The Shelter For Months

Julia Correll of Desert Dog Project the rescue that helps shelter dogs in need of medical care and a foster home saw Sully and immediately fell in love

She volunteered at Maricopa County Animal Care  Control Arizona when Sullys sorrowful appearance broke her heart Formerly known as Gindo he lived in a small kennel with severe arthritis that disabled him from walking properly

He was picked up as a stray alongside his puppies and a female dog Eventually all of them got adopted into loving homes leaving Sully all alone

Due to his poor living conditions he appeared to be much older than he really was

Gindo has been waiting over 3 months at the shelter He has severe arthritis and struggles to walk even a few feet He was found as a stray and is estimated to be about 5 but he appears much older He is skinny and covered in sores and scabs Julia wrote in a Facebook post

Julia couldnt understand why people found Sully so intimidating He was the friendliest most affectionate Pittie she had ever met yet he couldnt find a home

He is the most gentle affectionate loving dog His favorite thing is sitting in your lap and rolling over for belly rubs He isnt fazed by anyone or anything He is truly such a lover she added

Inclined to give Sully a second chance at life Julia decided to take him out on daily trips The two would go to a park and spend the whole day there lying on a blankie and soaking up all the beauty of the world

Even though everything started out as a foster trial it took Sully only a few months to convince his new momma to keep him forever

He was just the easiest foster dog that she ever had And despite the fact that it took him six months to adapt to house life he knew just the perfect way to her heart

He is seriously the easiest foster dog I have ever had Julia wrote on Instagram

He got his very own stroller which he enjoyed so much That way he could accompany his hooman everywhere and not worry about his condition

They would go on city walks take trips explore new things such as meeting new friends and basically do everything he craved for so long

Sully had been a peopleoriented dog all this time he just needed someone to realize that Julia figured it out immediately

To help his worndown elbows from further deterioration she even got him his custom braces aside from joint injections acupuncture treatments and physical therapy that he was already subjected to

His momma did everything she could to help Sully live like a regular dog and it is safe to say that she succeeded

In addition to that she even surprised him with the single best gift he could ever ask for  a dog sibling
