Thirty-seven neglected pit bulls have been rescued from a suspected dog-fighting ring in Tacoma, Washington. The group of underfed, frightened adult dogs and puppies were taken into the care of the Humane Society and, after making a spectacular recovery, are ready to be adopted.

The Humane Society for Tacoma & Pierce County released a statement on their website on Feb. 19, 2020. “On December 18, we took in 37 malnourished and terrified adult and puppy pit bulls as the result of an ongoing dogfighting investigation in Tacoma’s backyard,” they began.
