I'm sort of sad..

PitBullie09 · 11-14-2004, 01:50 PM

Well. Me and my grandpa just went to his buisness,which is where I used to live. Their was always alot of dog abuse around there. But since I moved it has got worse. I walked down there to see what I could find. Well it wasnt good. There are these black people (who have LITERALLY went through 25 dogs in the last year.) They either always die of getting ran over, dieseses etc. and these people dont EVER take them to the vet. Well I walked down there and they had four adorable little puppies. I wanted to take them so bad. There was a little male that I expessialy liked, he was fuzzy and was blk/tan and looked like a GSD mix! And the others were black and white looked like labs mixes! Well I was really wanting to take that Shepherd mix, but my grandpa woundnt let me

I know these puppies wont last very long bc they live right in front of a highway. And I cant tell any-one about it bc there isnt anything they will do. I also suspect some pit fighting down there, but I'm not 100% sure.

I don't see how the color of their skin plays any part in this...

PitBullie09 · 11-14-2004, 02:27 PM

Are you talking about the people? Oh I have NOTHING against black people, I have alot of black friends. I was just saying. I know white or black people can both be either good or bad.

gaddylovesdogs · 11-14-2004, 02:37 PM

I'm not against blacks either, tons of them are SO GREAT, but I've noticed that mostly blacks own pits or fight pits. They're not bad people.

Call animal control, hopefully they'll do something....

Global Paw · 11-14-2004, 02:45 PM

Dog fighting happens mostly in heavily urban areas...and a great majority of the black population in this country is in urban areas...there may or may not be a connection there.

I am just saying that you're more likly to be involved in dog fighting depending on your place of residence...not color of skin.

PitBullie09 · 11-14-2004, 02:47 PM

Thats the thing there isnt a pound for that county. I'm going to go down there and ask them if they want them soon. If they do there really isnt nothing I can do. I will try to get her to atleast give me 2. Maybe she will. If she wont I will call a differnent pound. And if she will give me 2 I will still call for the others.

PitBullie09 · 11-14-2004, 02:47 PM

I know alot of Mexican people fight them to. Mexico doesnt have a law that you cant fight them.

***Carrie*** · 11-14-2004, 03:06 PM

I'm so sorry to hear this and sorry you had to see it all first hand. Maybe some agency could help or give you a lead as to how to start to do something. If fighting dogs is illegal and if that's happening, there must be someone to do something about it. Oh....that is sad.

PitBullie09 · 11-14-2004, 03:38 PM

Yea hopefullie some people can help. The pups dont have collars or nothing. I have no clue where they could ahve come from but the people are always bringing some dog home.

GoldenRetriever07 · 11-14-2004, 04:22 PM

That's sad!

GoldenRetriever07 · 11-14-2004, 04:24 PM

They should get those animal cops ppl down there, like on animal planet!

minpinsrock · 11-14-2004, 04:46 PM

Awe thats really sad...why don't you call the pound in the next county!! ~!~Ashley~!~

Rip's Girl · 11-14-2004, 05:08 PM

Poor dogs.

I also don't see why skin color comes into play here.. Some people of every race are cruel to dogs. Also, some people of every race love dogs.

GreenleafGreyhound · 11-14-2004, 05:28 PM

Regarding skin color:
If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all.
That being said, I don't have light skin, so please don't use words such as black, yellow, or white. Maybe from your standpoint, it doesn't sound racial, but it does from mine.
Back to dogs:
I thought dog fighting was banned in every state

If you have a strong feeling that they do fight pits, then I'd give a heads-up to the local authorities because dog fighting rings are hot spots for drug abuse. Maybe you can ask to see where the keep the dogs because I think dog fighters use heavy chains to weigh down the pit to mimic an opposing dog. Therefore, "strengthening" the dog. I've never been in this situation, but I know my friend's pit bull was stolen. Maybe that's where they get their dogs?

PitBullie09 · 11-17-2004, 09:37 PM

Oh my gosh..I know everyone has different skin colors. I didnt mean it that way..I just was saying what color they were.Like I said, I have nothing againt any color of people. Anyway..The do have them on huge chains and it is illegal here also.
