35 Unforgettable Dog Before-And-After Transformations That Show The Power Of Compassion
For 24 years, The Pit’s Ales NGO in São Paulo, Brazil, has been a lifeline for some of the most misunderstood and mistreated dogs—especially pit bulls. Founded and led by animal advocate Alessandro Desco, the organization has devoted itself primarily to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming pit bulls, who are all too often victims of abuse, neglect, and deep-rooted public bias.
Operating under immense financial strain and ongoing societal stigma, The Pit’s Ales has succeeded in giving over 600 pit bulls a second chance at life. Yet their compassion extends beyond one breed. Over the years, Desco and his small, tireless team have also opened their arms to dogs of all kinds—those abandoned, broken, or forgotten—providing each with the care and dignity they deserve.

Is that the same guy that's holding the dog? Did he adopt the dog?

Upvote for the rescue. Pictures might not be the same dog but they were rescued, nonetheless.

The people who took care of these dogs, are awesome and deserve awards and good karma. The people who neglected these dogs deserve to burn in hell, or a lifetime of bad karma.

Listen, if I bring my Louisville Slugger, we can take turns teaching those animal abusing mother f*****s a good lesson. Are you in?

You can see it in all the dogs' eyes. The question "What did I do wrong?" and it's heartbreaking. I'm not actually "built close to the water", I don't cry at sad movie scenes, etc., don't cry much in general. But looking into these sad dogs' eyes (even just in photos) ... I burst into tears.
