A second-incident was reported to the dog’s owner on July 1. Hughes allegedly told the owner of the dogs that they were involved in another fighter, this time, causing injuries to the other dogs and Hughes as well.
A day later, Hughes allegedly called the dog owner again to notify him that the three dogs were “put down” due to aggressive behavior and indicated to the victim that police were involved in the matter.

However, it was discovered that Hughes arraigned for a third party to “take care” of the dogs. At this time, it is unknown if the dogs are alive or dead, nor the location of the
The rest of the family did not know about what had really happened that night. One day Anne Lindbergh Charles wife told the police that usually the dog barks when a unfamiliar person or something is happening outside and it's odd the dog did not bark when its dog house is so close to the kidnappers. Lindbergh heard this then said that the dog was getting old and it does not bark much at all at anyone anymore. Really the dog was in good health and one police

The sled was pulled by Hank Johnston’s two Alaskan malamute dogs. Both women testified that nobody drives the sled, and that instead, the dogs pull it. Matty testified that anybody could have control of the dogs, and tell them to stop when necessary. Furthermore, Matty also stated that based on the dogs’ training, the dogs knew to wait until both women were on the sled to leave, and knowing to leave without either woman commanding them to. While out sledding, Matty and Donna heard a loud cracking noise, which was presumed to possibly be a tree limb cracking. Donna and Matty leaned into the noise before the sled tipped over, and both parties were flung from the sled. Neither party had a chance to tell the dogs to stop before the accident. While Matty only suffered a few minor bruises, Donna ended up hitting a tree, which led to multiple injuries and a few nights stay in the
While en-route I asked where they had been throughout the night. Jason stated the dog got close to them several times and they just kept moving. I explained the officers were just trying to help him and he did not reply. Jason stated that he just wanted to die and continued to state every time he does something he gets blamed for it. I asked if his brother had tried to help him and he stated no. Jason said his brother stayed with him and tried to convince him to go back to the house.

Central Idea- Pitbull’s as we know them are more than just a dog bred for dog fighting, and marked to be terrifying
Recently, some police departments decided to rescue pit bulls and use them in their K9 units. As a German Shepherd costs thousands of dollars, an adopted pit bull is much cheaper. This idea is expected to grow as pit bulls are found to be intelligent and strong dogs which is great for the law enforcement. While the breed is being adopted out of shelters, given a home and duty, the officers also get to work with the misjudged animals to show the world the truth about pit bulls.
They are deprived of food, water and in 90-degree heat.

Many were sheltered in makeshift houses from plastic, metal, and wooden scraps.” This of course after or before the fights, but in order to train and treat the dog s might involve the use of drugs or other methods. In the same article by Ethan Rosenberg, it claims, “367 Pit Bulls Terriers that appeared to have been in multiple fights, as well as guns, illegal narcotics, and drugs used to train and treat dogs.” One can more than just assume on how awful these dogs are being treated.
