The brutal beating of the then eight-month-old pup named Brixie was captured on camera and shared online. The video showed a man repeatedly hitting a dog in the backseat of a car because she ate his pizza and the dog crying out in pain.He also bit her ear resulting in over 20 stitches. A day after the video surfaced, the dog was surrendered to police, and a warrant was issued for Justin Johnson, 34, for aggravated animal cruelty.

Both Brixie's hips were broken. She has had one surgery and will be getting her second one soon. Funds raised from this campaign will help with those surgical and PT costs. Brixie continues to thrive and heal in her loving foster home.
