Chance the German Shepherd was adopted Monday by one of the York City police officers who found him nearly beaten to death on August 23.
The dog suffered multiple fractures and was extremely malnourished.
“Seeing how a terrible human being could just beat a poor, four or five-month-old little animal, leave him there to die, unconscious, lying on the ground, it’s just something that strikes a chord with you," said Officer Matthew Tamanosky of the York City Police Department.
Officer Tamanosky and his girlfriend, Sabrina Knotts, came to the York County SPCA on Monday afternoon to take Chance home.
They're both dog lovers and Chance will be their first.
“I just want to give him a good home and a nice easygoing life that he deserved from the start," said Officer Tamanosky.
Over the last several weeks, Chance has recovered remarkably, building his strength and regaining his personality.

The evil pos did not win. Goodness and kindness won. Chance won. I wish for this pupper and his family to have the best lives ever.

People who harm animals usually harm humans too, especially little ones. I hope this person is arrested and punished.
-
I wish it was a felony and death penalty for abusing animals! So glad this dog got a second chance!

Like what kind of piece of shit do you need to be to beat a dog?
-
I don't see how a person could do this to a puppy. German Shepards are so dedicated and faithful to their masters. I glad he healed and has a new good home.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if all those who inflict pain, neglect, abuse on others -- animal or human -- could feel the same in real time? Depending on their attitude either as a punishment or a lesson in empathy and doing unto others...

It would've been really hard for me to not do to the person the same thing he did to the dog. I hope they make an arrest.
-
And yet...that animal will be the most loyal friend ever, even after the trauma it went through. We humans sometimes don't deserve our dogs.
