MSPCA takes in 25 dogs from Texas
PROVIDENCE, R.I (WLNE) — From the Lone Star State to the Bay State, 25 dogs will be finding new homes in Massachusetts.
The Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is partnering with American Humane and Bissell Pet Foundation to rescue 25 large breed dogs from Texas.
The dogs arrived in Massachusetts via Hanscom Field in Bedford on Tuesday.
The dogs range from 12 weeks to 10 years old and include pit bulls, Labrador retrievers, hounds and Catahoulas.
The dogs will be split up between all for of the MSPCA Adoption Centers and will be available for adoption after the state-mandated 48-hour quarantine and medical care.
“Many of these dogs were living at a small rescue operation,” said MSPCA-Angell Vice President of Animal Protection, Mike Keiley.
“But that group was no longer able to provide the care that they needed, so the dogs started to suffer, and it became clear they needed to be moved off the property.”
