Sweetest Pit-mix once used as “bait dog” now runs to her mom asking for hugs
Raffie is a lucky dog.
Lucky as he is, though, his start in life was quite hard.

He was used by his former owners for breeding for a long time, and, when they didn’t need him anymore, they used him for something worse.
Raffie was used as bait.
But Raffie wanted nothing to do with fights. He is not the kind of dog that fights back or bites other dogs.
On the contrary, he will turn around and leave if another dog is acting aggressively toward him.
That’s when they realized he wasn’t good enough for them. And, luckily, he was rescued and taken to an animal shelter.
That’s where he found true love.
It was the first time in his life he’d encountered it.
He found an empathetic human who could understand his needs and give him all the love he deserved and that he had never received before.

Maren is a young woman who lives in the Netherlands.
For her and Raffie, it was pretty much love at first sight.
Soon, she adopted him and took him home.
She knew the dog had already suffered a lot in his life, and she wanted to make up for everything this cute pup had been through.
βI say I am his service dog, his emotional support dog,β Raffieβs new mom told GeoBeats.
Since his adoption, he has never felt sad or unwanted again.
His mom has been treating him as if he was her real child. She even makes sure to care for his skin, and she gives him mani-pedis frequently.
Raffie is the most affectionate dog.
He loves to cuddle with her, and they spend much of their day hugging and cuddling on the sofa.
It doesn’t matter what time of the day it is, Raffie and his mom will always find a few moments to spend quality time together.
The sweet dog adores his mama.
And he will follow her everywhere. Even in the toilet, as she reveals.
When Maren needs to leave home, she asks her dad to look after Raffie. The dog will always sit by the front door waiting for his favorite human to return.
As much as Raffie loves his human mom, he’s also kind and tolerant to other animals. He gets along very well with cats, sheep, and even cows.
Recently, Maren adopted another dog, Odin.
He had been dumped by his former owners and desperately needed a forever home.
Odin instantly became best friends with Raffie, although they have completely different personalities.

βRaffie, I always say, doesnβt have a sense of humor and doesnβt understand anything. But Odin is like a clown,β Maren explains.
The three of them are not best friends and they are having the time of their lives together.
Maren loves taking care of them, and the pups enjoy some pampering every so often.

They also love it when their mom sings to them. They just couldn’t ask for a better family to be a member of.
