Thanks to the Humane Society Association, Sam, trained for dog-fighting, has finally managed to turn the page and start a new life.
Unfortunately, dog-fighting is very common in the United States. The breeds used are mainly Pit Bulls and Staffordshire Terriers, like Sam. The animal was saved from a certain slow and painful death, and then placed in a shelter in Pennsylvania. It is here that for several weeks Sam has been cherished and comforted, something he had not previously experienced. He has gradually adapted to his fellow humans and finally and family has adopted him.
This family has decided to make him the mascot of dogs used for fighting, and this way, to educate Americans, who are too little informed on the subject.
His Facebook page now has more than 350,000 fans , and his adoptive parents do not hesitate to give news and relay ads for poor dogs rescued from fighting.
