Beanz has had a rough first few months of life. The details of his past are not known, but his body bears marks that tell a sad tale. The 8-month-old pit bull mix came to The Pittie Party of Central Florida in June after he'd been taken to a local <a href="https://www.westernjournal.com/dog-seen-stumbling-street-bleeding-mouth-vets-discover-tongue-cruelly-cut/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">veterinarian</a>. The person who brought him in said he'd been thrown from a truck.

Beanz's back was riddled with both road rash and what appeared to be third-degree chemical <a href="https://www.westernjournal.com/dogs-severely-burned-owner-tries-break-fight-pouring-gasoline-police/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">burns</a>, and he had to stay at the vet's for over a week while his wounds were taken care of.

He wore lots of shirts and doggie pajamas to keep him from worrying about the tender spots. Beanz hasn't let the cruel treatment he received affect his joy for life or his love of people. His foster family told WOFL in June that he was recovering well and is a lovebug.

"Beanz, usually I play tug-of-war with him with his toys, and when we're not, I sit down and watch a movie with him." "I like how when you lay down, he doesn't just like lay beside you," 13-year-old Nariya Robertson added. "He comes up on top of you and tries to cuddle with you." By July, his foster family had made a concrete decision: They couldn't let Beanz out of their lives.

"Beanz’s foster decided today that they would like to adopt him," the rescue told <a href="https://www.fox35orlando.com/news/orlando-puppy-found-burned-thrown-from-truck-gets-adopted" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WOFL</a> on Monday. "Beanz wants everyone to know he is officially living his BEST LIFE!" the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TPPCF/posts/1819896498197977" target="_blank" rel="noopener">rescue</a> shared on July 17, along with photos of Beanz thoroughly enjoying some pool time. "A few weeks ago he was known to most of you as our little burn baby... but now he is the happiest boy alive and loves to swim in the pool! He loves relaxing on a floatie... or on top of his foster mama.

Hope you all have a fantastic Saturday." The news has warmed readers' hearts, but no one is as happy about the news as Beanz and his new forever family.
