Recovering addict Michael Favor (left) plays with one of his rescued pitbulls at Pitbulls and Addicts, a Staten Island dog rescue which aims to help both recovering drug addicts and stray animals on August 24, 2017 in New York City. Favor started the dog rescue after 12 years of using drugs and losing countless friends to addiction. Pitbulls and Addicts looks to rescue abandoned and abused dogs, rehabilitate them, and find them caring homes. Numerous volunteers at the facility are also recovering addicts who walk and feed the dogs. Eventually Favor hopes for Pitbulls and Addicts to become a non profit that serves both the addiction community and abused animals. (Photo by Spencer Platt/Getty Images)
