Meet the angel of all pit bulls
b"Three hundred dogs. That\\u2019s how many pitbulls Anya Kopchinsky has fostered in her five years rescuing them from dog-fighting rings. \\n\\nThese are criminal cases, she explained on the latest episode of the Exit 43 podcast, even though most of the time the perpetrators get light sentences for unrelated crimes like drugs or money laundering. \\n\\n\\u201cIt's a lot of work for little payoff for sure,\\u201d Kopchinsky said. \\n\\nOn the latest episode of Exit 43, Kopchinsky details the conditions in which these animals are forced to live, and what it\\u2019s like to foster them, to help them recover enough to become family dogs, with a happy future. \\n\\nWhy is the podcast called Exit 43? As anyone who drives the Merritt Parkway knows, there is no exit 43, and the reasons why touch on issues of privilege, access and the history of the state itself. Each week we\\u2019ll dive into a local news issue, examining an aspect of life in and around Connecticut you probably didn\\u2019t know about.\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
