This rescue made a big impact on them both.

“Booping of the boops, I think, is going to be one of those core memories.“ Dasani is one of 14 dogs rescued from an alleged dogfighting and cruelty situation in Gaston County, North Carolina. The dogs were found living in makeshift, hazardous enclosures throughout the property, some with visible scarring consistent with injuries typically seen in dogfighting operations. Veterinarians noted dental issues, skin conditions, missing hair and puncture wounds on some of the dogs. Dogfighting paraphernalia was found throughout the property. “It’s always haunting … seeing what the dogs have had to endure and thinking about how they’ve suffered,” said Jessica Johnson, senior director of the Humane Society of the United States’ animal rescue team. “We are grateful to the Gaston County Police Department for intervening on behalf of these dogs. No animal deserves to suffer the way these dogs have, but this is the last day they will have to live like this.” Help us Fight for ALL ANIMALS!
