Our dog Remmi, a survivor of a horrible animal cruelty case, said hi to some of the officers who saved his life ♥️ we’re so thankful for them, and so thankful for our Remmi boy to be in our lives
A few years ago, the Black Rock Canines facility in Naugatuck made headlines for horrific acts of animal cruelty. The investigation uncovered widespread mistreatment and led to dozens of dogs being seized and placed into the care of shelters.
Among the dogs rescued from that situation was Remi, who at the time of his rescue weighed just 39 pounds. We are happy to share that today he’s absolutely thriving—pushing 90 pounds of happy, healthy dog.
Recently, Remi stopped by for a visit to the PD, and seeing him healthy, confident, and full of life was a powerful reminder of just how far he’s come—and how the teamwork of compassionate, hardworking humans can truly change the lives of animals in need. Here in the Borough, we serve ALL members of our community, including the ones with four legs. 💙🐾
