After surviving a scary incident, an adorable puppy is recovering and looking for a new home.

VanBuren, believed to be about six months old, was recently rescued from a river in Jackson Country, Michigan. Someone put the dog inside a wire crate and abandoned the pet in the river, WILX reported on Tuesday.

Jackson County Animal Shelter is now caring for VanBuren, who is "a super sweet and loving boy," according to a Facebook postfrom the shelter.

"Full of wiggles and kisses, he still loves people and wants to be the best doggo ever," the post added about VanBuren's outstanding temperament despite his abuse.

According to the post, VanBuren had a "nasty break" in one of his legs when rescuers found him. The Jackson County Animal Shelter is treating the injury, and VanBuren is on the road to recovery.

"We know he would heal much better in a home and there's no reason he has to wait to be adopted! JCAS will continue the medical care for his leg post-adoption," the Michigan shelter wrote in its Facebook post.
