To help raise awareness about this critical issue, Patrick Stewart visited the ASPCA Canine Annex for Recovery and Enrichment, a center where the ASPCA rehabilitates victims of cruelty. Patrick got to meet a few dogfighting rescues, including a sweet dog named Orson who is in need of a loving home.
