SAM's Story...
SAM---AMERICAN PITBULL TERRIER---MALE--- 4 1/2 MTHS
Sam is a 4.5 month old puppy. He is like any typical puppy with high energy. He plays fetch, if I or my 2 yr old daughter throw the ball he goes and gets it brings it back to us. I have a 9 year old Shih Tzu & a 5 yr old Pomeranian who Sam gets along with well. They are smaller in size then Sam and older so they aren't too found of Sam’s puppy energy but they deal with Sam and Sam is learning to gauge his play with them. They play nicely except when Sam wants to pounce on them but they deal with Sam.
He's good with dogs of all sizes and cats. Sam sleeps in his cage at night and goes in when we leave the house. Sam doesn't bark while being in the cage. He gives kisses, sits and gives paw. He seems to be about 75% house trained (crate-training). Could probably be 100% if someone devoted more time in taken him out. He is eager to learn. Overall, he is an energetic playful dog. He is being fostered in a home with 2 adults, a 2 yr old girl and 2 small dogs. He deserves a playful very warm & loving home. WRITTEN BY SAM’S FOSTER MAMA
Sam is neutered, dewormed, treated to prevent fleas & ticks and is up to date with all his vaccinations. His adoption fee is $300 and he'll get a free basic exam at one of our participating vet's offices.

Charles Henderson Animal Rescue is open every day from 12pm to 7pm. Zeus is an awesome, energetic and great dog that needs a great owner. Will you be that family or person?
Below is a small glimpse into Sam’s start in life but his luck has changed and he is on the road to a completely different type of life filled with love and play and pampering sprinkled with rules & boundaries and structure.
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.
