NJ Pit Bull Is Starving To Death, And No One Knows Why

OAKLAND, NJ — A dying Pit Bull is starving to death and no one knows why.

Two animal rescue organizations are working together to save Sally's life.

Sally was surrendered after her appetite drastically decreased over the last several weeks. She will not eat, and her body is failing, said Amy Hofer, a spokesperson with the Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge in Oakland. The refuge has partnered with Jersey Pits Rescue to help save Sally's life.

Sally was rushed to the hospital, and she may require surgery, Hofer said.

If and when Sally recovers, she will need a foster home.

"Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge Inc. is founded on the belief that all animals have a natural right to humane treatment including proper care and safe shelter," Hofer said.
