Bubba the puppy has had to endure more cruelty in his young life than any animal ever should. But despite all he's been through, his is still a story of hope - and, as you'll soon see, immense gratitude for those who helped him through it.

In March, the young terrier mix was rescued by Officer Jeremy Laurich, from the Tustin Police Department, during a raid on a drug den in California that resulted in the arrest of his former owner. Sadly, having been exposed to the significant amount of illicit material discovered there, Bubba was found to be under the influence by no fault of his own.

He later tested positive for heroin, methamphetamine and nicotine.
