LOS ANGELES — Norman was hog-tied and dumped in a San Bernardino school field.

The pit bull mix faced euthanasia at the city’s overcrowded shelter.

Fortunately for him, the Shelter Transport Animal Rescue Team sprang into action.

On Thursday, volunteers for the Los Angeles-based group will take Norman and nearly 200 other dogs and cats to Oregon and Washington. The animals will go to guaranteed homes or no-kill shelters.

Norman is headed for the Willamette Humane Society in Salem.
