MANY PLACES IN THE LAND OF THE FREE HAVE BANNED PITBULLS.READ THE FOLLOWING...The Case: The Clark County Animal Shelter gives the following account: On
Friday morning, a Clark County resident reported finding a seriously injured dog
in their barn. The Clark County Animal Shelter director responded immediately
and rushed the dog to the veterinarian, but the dog died shortly after his
arrival at the veterinarian’s office. The Clark County Sheriff’s Office investigated the matter and discovered that the dog had been dragged behind a car for more than a mile—from an elementary school to a home on Calloway White
Road, where his body was left in the street. In spite of his broken bones and
other horrific injuries, the pit bull apparently crawled from the road to seek
refuge in the barn.
“This dog suffered horrific pain and a needless death, and anyone responsible
for intentionally dragging a dog behind a car should be prosecuted,” said Pamela
Rogers, The HSUS’ Kentucky state director. “Thankfully, the penalty for such a
crime against animals is now a felony in Kentucky and I hope our reward helps
find this dog’s assailants, and bring justice in this case.”
