Eliza June, a pit bull mix, was abandoned on the road by her owners, resulting in her being hit by a vehicle. Eliza June was dazed, shaking and crying from the traumatic experience when a rescue discovered her. While she recovered from her injuries, the shelter had a difficult time accepting her mental scars and classified her as “extremely aggressive.”

Annie Morgan volunteered to care for the difficult Eliza. The poor dog had a broken pelvis, a fractured hip, and a bruised lung, but it was her psychological injuries that caused her to become uncontrollably aggressive.
Eliza had an intense fear of human touch, and she shuddered at the sight of a leash or collar. Eliza took her time to get used to Annie during her early days in foster care. Eliza went into a corner and shut off, as if anticipating that Annie would harm her.

Eliza’s cowering fear-dominant posture was distressing to observe, but Annie became even more resolved to heal the baby’s damagedness. This film offers a heartbreaking look into Eliza’s struggle to repair her shattered soul after finding solace with Annie.
