The Cruelest Sport with The Most Loving Players

Dog fighting is perhaps one of the most cruel, obscene acts of gratuitious violence I have ever witnessed (not first hand, fortunately). The following will make you cringe, but I feel it's a necessary truth.

Dogs that get involved in dog fighting rings are often abused to horrific extremes. It is not unusal for owners of these dogs to beat, kick, and whip the dogs. In other cases, dogs will be denied food for long periods of time. Even more disturbing is the fact that many of these dogs are puppies when the abuse starts. All of this serves one purpose, to make the dog as vicious as possible.

You might ask why there are people disgusting enough to subject innocent animals to such torture. In a word, profit. In the United States, dog fighting is illegal in all 50 states. However, much of the dog fighting takes place in illegal underground gambling rings, as is the case with much of the world. These rings attract shockingly large groups of people who place bets on the dogs.

Guys, the truly heart breaking aspect of all this is that even though local police and various animal organizations often try to rescue dogs from their dog fighting kennels, many times the dogs are abused past the point of return. The dogs have been abused to such an extent that they are too aggressive and too violent to be with a regular owner and must be put to sleep.

That's where we come in. We have to stop dog fighting at the source and one way to do that is to ask for stricter enforcement of these laws.

Please, please, please guys, sign this petition for more serious legislation concerning dog fighting. It is absolutely FREE and the 1 minute you take to sign the petition will do so much good for these poor animals.
