Two dogs taken in by the Animal Refuge League of Greater Portland in Westbrook are looking for a forever home after being saved from a suspected dog fighting ring in South Carolina.
According to CBS 13 news, the two dogs named Barney and Saphira are among the 275 dogs rescued by the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) in September 2022. The dogs were found living outdoors on chains or in pens with makeshift shelters that provided little protection against the elements.
Barney and Saphira are currently learning to trust people at the shelter but have shown a playful and affectionate side after warming up to new people.
You can find Barney and Saphira as well as other dogs up for adoption at the Animal Refuge League of Greater Portland’s website.
