Pittie Rescued After 15 Months Alone Finally Finds Love and Trust

No dog should ever be left homeless. The emotional toll of abandonment can cause lasting damage, making it incredibly challenging to restore their trust and confidence.

Mama, a pitbull found abandoned in the fields of California, had been surviving on her own in the wilderness for months. Isolated and wary, she kept herself hidden from any signs of human life.

Each time someone tried to get close, fear would overwhelm her, causing her to flee. Mama appeared to have developed a deep mistrust of people, avoiding all interactions—until one day, a kind-hearted man made a decision that would change her life forever.

Alone and stranded in the middle of nowhere…

Danny Spanx, a radio DJ from Bakersfield, California, and founder of Savefor Place Animal Rescue, has long been dedicated to rescuing dogs. Even before crossing paths with Mama, he had already saved numerous stray dogs from dire situations.

Danny’s greatest passion has always been witnessing the incredible transformation of a scared, mistreated dog into a completely different animal. Now, he’s ready to extend that same care to Mama.

Before Danny met her, several people had mentioned a pitbull hiding in the fields along a desolate road, far from any nearby towns. Against all odds, Mama survived on her own for 15 months until Danny finally found her.

Though it’s unclear how the beautiful dog ended up alone, Danny suspects Mama was used for breeding and then heartlessly abandoned far from her original home.

“Dogs like Mama go through pregnancy, give birth, maybe nurse their puppies for a while, and then someone takes them away and dumps them,” Danny explains.

Mama found shelter in a remote orchard outside Bakersfield, near a pile of discarded items, including a mattress and box springs. To keep her from straying too far, Danny set up a temporary shelter the next day, creating a safe space and designated feeding area.

Despite several rescue attempts, they were unsuccessful.

Despite many failed attempts to save Mama in the past, Danny remained undeterred by her persistent fear of him. Every day, he drove an hour just to check on her, relying on patience as his greatest asset in this effort.

He would often find a spot in the Orchard, keeping his distance and waiting quietly. For months, this routine went on, until one special day when Mama finally approached. She cautiously sniffed his back, took some food nearby, and quickly retreated.

Danny felt immense joy as he watched Mama slowly emerge from her shell, though there was still a long road ahead. Her approaching him was a significant step, and Danny knew it was only a matter of time before she fully let her guard down.

For the next few months, Danny made it a daily routine to visit Mama along the road. He would stand by the orchard, waiting in the field with eager anticipation for her arrival.

Gradually, this beautiful girl began wagging her tail at the sound of Danny’s car, running joyfully at a safe distance, as if celebrating their reunion.

One day, Danny lay on the floor with treats in his hand, patiently waiting. After some hesitation, Mama cautiously approached him and gently took the treat from his hand.

It was a remarkable moment—Mama’s soft touch on his hand for the first time. Danny was thrilled to see her trust him, but he remained calm, not wanting to startle her with his excitement.

Over time, Mama grew more comfortable with Danny. She would follow him around, sit by his side, and accept treats directly from his hand. Since she still wouldn’t allow him to put a leash on her, Danny decided to take another route.

With the help of some friends, he set up a humane trap, using food to guide her in. As soon as Mama stepped inside, Danny knew she was finally safe!

For two months, Danny focused on gaining Mama’s trust. It required a lot of effort and socializing, but in time, Mama became an amazing companion.

“Whenever she sits beside me with that happy look on her face, my heart fills with joy. My goal has always been to earn her trust and love, just as she loves me,” Danny told The Dodo.

Mama even began interacting with other dogs and people.

Danny also discovered that Mama has a special affection for children. She’s especially fond of Raiden, their young neighbor.

They have a special bond, and at times, it feels like Raiden is Mama’s absolute favorite. When he’s around, no one else seems to matter to her.

Danny decided to give Mama a permanent home. Seeing her truly happy after all she’s been through brings Dani so much joy. Now, Mama will never have to worry about finding a new place to live—she already has the perfect one!
