Mojo the pit bull pup amstaff mix up was only 3 months old when his life was already at threat. Suffering from severe demodectic mange, the pooch had only hours to live when he was rescued by Joey Wagner.

One kind human was trying to take care of the pup but Mojo’s case was too severe, so Wagner took him straight to an animal hospital. With extensive care, the pooch got better and adoption requests started coming. However, the severity of his condition made it impossible for ordinary adoptions, and so that’s when Wagner stepped in again.

Being one of the creators of the non-profit Baie Ste Marie Animal Society in Nova Scotia, Wagner decided to give a home to Mojo. When he returned to the animal hospital where he left the pup, Mojo was shy at first but as soon as he recognized his hero, he couldn’t contain his excitement and leaped straight into the man’s arms! 2 years passed since then and Mojo’s fur has never fully returned, however that doesn’t stop him from living a happy life with his big family.
