RBARI Rescues Dogs

Thirteen small dogs were rescued from a filthy, roach-infested Passaic apartment after the owner was evicted.
Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge (RBARI) provided immediate care because the local shelter was at capacity.
RBARI is seeking donations to support the dogs' medical needs and comfort.
The dogs will soon be available for adoption, though it remains unclear whether any criminal charges will follow.
