JOEL's Story...
JOEL---AMERICAN PITBULL TERRIER---MALE---6 1/2 MONTHS
Joel is a super sweet, happy go lucky, young puppy that is full of 6 ½ month old male with playful puppy energy. Joel is a super sweet and with the right direction, he’s as gentle as a lamb and will turn out to be a great family dog. He just needs some puppy/dog manners and guidance. I spent a good 6 hours straight with this great guy and he is super sweet! He’s a very nice puppy. Quiet while residing in his crate after some exercise, he was a willing participant & willing went into his crate. Joel needs someone who understands APT and has had experience with APT or larger dogs like mastiffs or Rottweilers. He is willing to learn if you are willing to lead. Mush him up and he’s a sweet butterball but then he wants to take you for a walk and run the show. Show Joel the proper way to walk and live in harmony with rules and structure and he goes along with the ride. Joel needs that kind of training. He is not quite completely housebroken but with several walks a day, he is getting there. He does go to the bathroom outside but left for too long unattended, which shouldn’t be an option anyways, he will deposit some gifts in his crate. He is a great dog. He needs a great leader.
JOEL---AMERICAN PITBULL TERRIER---MALE---6 ½ MONTHS
Joel aka Joey is a VERY good puppy! He is very calm for his age. He loves to run and jump. At first he was petrified to walk down the stairs not sure if he was never exposed to stairs before or that he experienced a traumatic experience with stairs. He just learned how to walk down the stairs and sits when told to. He is currently being fostered in a family with 2 adults and 3 children ages ranging from (2, 4 & 10 yrs). He absolutely adores kids, loves to play hide and seek when the children are under the blanket calling for him. He will look until he finds his way in with the kids. When let out of his cage he likes to walk around the house. He only gets excited and hyper (puppy like) when the kids run around the house and stir him up to play. He does not bark whatsoever as of now. He sleeps in his cage at night and when we leave the house. (Part of crate training any puppy). He does not mind being in the cage. After every feeding which is 3x a day he is then walked 10mins after and has no problem going to the bathroom outdoors. If walked within a timely manner after his feeding he will not have any accidents in the house. It seems as though he knows his place he goes onto his dog bed and will not go onto the furniture, nor does he eat any household items when supervised. He has his toys and chews/plays with those only. He gives tons of kisses and is a mush. He loves to be loved! Overall, he is the absolute and I mean absolute perfect puppy a family can have. He is fine with cats, dogs, and children of all ages.

ASPCA Placing 33 Dogs Rescued from
Bronx Dog Fighting Operation with Rescue Partners
Multiple rescue groups throughout Northeast open their doors
to help give dogs second chance at life
NEW YORK—The ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) today announced that 26 dogs rescued from a dog fighting operation have been placed with several animal welfare groups throughout the Northeast. Placement options for an additional seven dogs are also in the process of being finalized. The dogs, ranging from puppies to adults, were rescued in late June by the ASPCA, at the request of the NYPD Vice Enforcement Division and Bronx District Attorney’s office, from a dog fighting operation in the Bronx.
For more than two months, ASPCA responders cared for and provided the dogs with extensive socialization, a healthy diet, medical care and exercise at a temporary shelter. Each dog was carefully evaluated by a team of animal behavior professionals prior to being transferred to the rescue groups. The following groups will continue to work with each dog to address its specific needs, with the hope of eventually adopting each of them to loving homes: St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center (Madison, N.J.); Charles Henderson Animal Rescue (Brooklyn, N.Y.); Columbia Greene Humane Society (Hudson, N.Y.); and Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire (Bedford, N.H.). Some dogs have also been transferred to the ASPCA’s Adoption Center in Manhattan.
The unfortunate reality in many dog fighting operations is the propensity for a certain number of the dogs involved to exhibit extreme aggression, and therefore to be very dangerous. Sadly, this proved true in this case. While we have been able to place the majority of dogs, some of the dogs were euthanized. These particular dogs were tragic victims of the brutalities of dog fighting—bred over generations to exhibit aggression, trained to fight with lethal intent, subjected to a life of inhumane treatment, and as a result, showcased highly aggressive behavior. After extensive evaluations, the decisions to euthanize were based on recommendations of multiple behavior professionals who weighed in objectively and independently, with the best interest of each individual animal in mind.
On June 21, ASPCA responders assisted in the removal, forensic evidence collection, and on-scene documentation of 50 dogs seized from a dog fighting operation in a six-story apartment building in the Bronx. The dogs were living in crude cages in the corner room of a basement, rarely, if ever, seeing the light of day, unless they were brought outside the room to be trained or fought. The basement included a makeshift fighting arena with capacity for dozens of spectators. Also recovered from the scene were a loaded .25-caliber handgun, multiple pet carriers, U.S. currency, and paraphernalia associated with a sophisticated dog fighting operation, including dog treadmills, harnesses, muzzles, syringes, and a shopping cart full of raw chicken parts. The dogs were transferred to a temporary shelter, where they were triaged by the ASPCA’s veterinary medical team and later evaluated individually by the ASPCA’s Anti-Cruelty Behavior Team.
The superintendent of the building, Raul Sanchez of the Bronx, was arrested that day and arraigned on July 24 on the following charges: 63 counts of animal fighting (13 felony charges; 50 misdemeanor charges); six counts of aggravated animal cruelty (felony); six counts of animal cruelty (misdemeanor); and one count of criminal possession of a weapon (misdemeanor). If convicted, he faces up to four years in jail. The ASPCA’s Legal Advocacy team is also providing support to the Bronx District Attorney’s office to help prosecute this case. The next court date is scheduled for September 25.
