To me, she is Little. That's the nickname that I call her.
00:04
Come on, Little. There you go, baby. Off we go.
00:08
Her body has scars all over it.
00:11
Most people don't see that, though, especially if she has on one of her coats.
00:15
They just think she's an old little dog.
00:18
And for a lot of people, that's as far as I want to take it.
00:23
Sometimes I just don't want her to have that negative attention.
00:28
I don't know how she survived or why she survived, but she did.
00:33
Some of the dog fighters want to say, "Oh, they love it."
00:43
They've been manipulated into this.
00:46
If you don't cut it as a fighting dog, then they'll kill you.
00:51
The traditional, historic relationship with dogs and fight bus
00:55
was simply to regard them as damaged goods and to kill them.
00:58
We'd been advocating for their survival.
01:01
We'd been advocating for them to be given a chance.
01:04
How could we not step forward and give them that chance
01:06
if we were the only ones who could?
01:09
Most of the time, people don't even hear about dog fighting cases.
01:13
Because of the status of one defendant in particular,
01:18
the general public started asking, "Why do you have to kill these dogs?"
01:24
Come say hi. Come say hello.
01:27
Officers found treadmills, whips, chains, injectable drugs--
01:31
one of the biggest and most elaborate dog fighting compounds they've ever seen.
01:36
The best that we could hope for was that we could show the general public
01:43
that you don't have to be afraid of the dogs
01:45
just because of the situation that they came from.
01:52
We never thought twice about taking a dog from a fighting situation.
01:56
We always thought it was going to be a lifelong journey for Cherry,
02:00
but we also didn't think he would come this far.
02:03
Good boy.
02:05
All of the dogs, not just Cherry, have taken this opportunity
02:08
to really show the world why shouldn't we have the chance.
02:12
No one will ever, ever hurt this dog ever again.
02:16
And I think she believes that now.
02:19
Let's go, Dittos.
02:21
This is where she was meant to be.
02:24
She knows that she's home.
