If you're feeling shortchanged on sweetness and hope, here's the antidote.
Cadence the pit bull was apparently used as bait for dogfights. She was scared, scarred and exhausted when Hope for Paws approached her in a dark alley in Los Angeles.

Cadence now seems pretty comfortable with the viral attention. Her story led to a personal appearance Sunday, according to Hope for Paws' Facebook page.
Everybody loves a comeback.
