Take Dog Fighting Seriously

Ask President Obama to urge State Governors to end this heinous sport forever!

Sponsored by: ASPCA

 

 

Although dog fighting is a felony in all 50 United States, there are still some states that don't take it seriously. As with any other illegal underground activity, it's impossible to determine how many people may be involved in dog fighting, but estimates are in the tens of thousands. This brutal blood sport is a pastime for rich and poor alike, and dog fighting has been reported in urban, suburban and rural settings in all regions of the country.

Sign the petition below and help end this heinous sport forever.

Unfortunately, because dog fighting is such a secretive enterprise, it makes it difficult for law enforcement to infiltrate. A dog fight investigation requires many of the same skills and resources as an undercover narcotics investigation, a challenge for many local agencies.

Urge President Obama to tell State Governors that law enforcement should have the resources and motivation to take this crime seriously. Also, that there should be local or state task forces to ensure a collaborative approach to ending this heinous sport forever. Take action today! Sign the petition below and tell a friend.
