Dog Fighting Today

                      Dog fighting, despite its felony status in all 50 states, is still a grave concern to animal advocates. All across the country, humans abuse dogs in heinous ways. From nonchalant, impromptu ‘street fights’ to the large-scale organized matches held on a regular schedule at set locations, dog fighting still occurs every day.

                       Dog fighting is an ANIMAL ABUSE ISSUE. Pit Bulls happen to be the breed most used in dog fights. But if Pit Bulls did not exist, dog fighting would still take place. There is no quenching the blood lust of human ‘kind’. Brutality against animals in the form of staged matches or fights between animals or even between man and animal is an activity almost as old as man himself – it was in existence long before the Pit Bull. Those who make dog fighting a PIT BULL ISSUE do the dogs a grave disservice. These dogs are VICTIMS in every sense of the word. Exploited, abused, tortured for human gain, Pit Bulls are innocent beings caught up in a tragic societal issue.

                       
                  Pit Bulls are NOT part of the problem. The only PROBLEM is PEOPLE. The dogs are not perpetrators, they are not evil partners of the humans, nor are they mere ‘tools’ of a ‘trade’. These dogs abused by man are living, feeling, breathing, helpless victims, with a world to offer if humans would only give them the chance. They have so much worth and substance, but their countless positive traits are trampled on and stifled by the real ‘animals’ who mistreat them. Allowed the opportunity to blossom into their true selves, even those dogs who have been exposed to the cruelty of the pit can live as companions and enjoy those luxuries afforded to ‘normal pet dogs’. Dogs saved from fighting busts do not need ‘rehabilitation’ – what they need is a chance to show who they truly are, their intrinsic natures - their positive attributes of love, trust, loyalty, courage, and gentleness.

Why Do Pit Bulls Fight?
