When it comes to Pitbulls, the monster is
often the two legged animal at the other end of the leash!
More than often, these poor dogs are the VICTIMS of irresponsible and abusive
ownership.

BEWARE
THE PICTURES AND STORIES THAT FOLLOW DO NOT
QUALIFY AS PLEASANT VIEWING

It's time people stop closing their
eyes to the source of the problem, and start facing reality.
The pictures below ARE the sad reality of too many pitbulls.

Pitbulls Need Our Help Not Our Hate

This poor little guy was found as a stray with a sever wound on the head. No one ever claimed him, and no home
was found before his deadline. He was euthanized on 05/29/99.

This one was
pulled down the street with a garden hose wrapped around its neck.
|
This is Monte, the day he was rescued after being left for dead
in the parking lot of a Burger King.

Angelo is still trying to smile despite his sad condition...

A Pitbull Story
I work at an Animal Hospital in Pa. We handle
a lot of pitbulls there from the local humane society, and see a lot of dogs that had been fought.
Here's is a sad story:
A few nights ago a Pitbull had been picked up by the local humane society and brought to us. It had been in a fight and lost, so his owners beat him (probably with a baseball bat) possibly shot him, and then threw him off of a bridge. It took almost two days before someone called for him to be picked up. Even though he had suffered greatly, he was still friendly towards people. Unfortunately his injuries were so great that he was not able to be saved, even with people willing to spend all they could to do it.
How someone could do this to a dog, I will never understand. No matter how many times I see animals treated like this, it still makes me sick.

Man Guilty in Dog's Death
Washington Post, Page B02
Thursday, April 8, 1999
A Reston man who beat his pit bull to death in February pleaded guilty
yesterday to one count of animal cruelty and was sentenced to two days
in jail. Fairfax County District Court Judge Richard T. Horan imposed a 60-day sentence on Frank A. Bigham, of the 12000 block of Greywing Square, but suspended 58 days.
Bigham struck the dog, Jawbone, after the dog snapped at him while Bigham was disciplining the dog for urinating on the floor.

Found in this condition. This little one was rescued.

Scootie will soon smile again. He was given a chance by a nice
Lady who adopted him (and an other dog with medical problems) in Virginia.

That one was not so lucky.... He was found dead while AC was assisting the police in a drug raid.
