So far I have never heard of any dog fighting activities here and I am glad. But there are a lot of illegal rooster fights that go on here. It is sad how people will use animals to fight for their entertainment and gambling. What is even more terrible is when these dogs that are rescued from dog fights or from owners who train them for the fights, may have to be put down. The dogs turn viscious and may not be adoptable. People can be so cruel to animals.

hope not there is a lot of in Scotland in the whole of Britian in fact THE LASTEST CRAZE IS TO LOCK 2 dogs in a lift at top of block send the life down and let them fight is it horrid and if any people get into the lift god help them aslo a lot of small dogs have been stolen from the streets and gardens and used in dog fighting i am so disgusted

sorry if it upset u i think these things r better out in the open i wish they wud stop

rooster fighting is so sad 2

here in USA if a person gets caught with dog fighting things in there home or on proporty they can go to jail, if they are caught with fighting dogs they will go to jail. the fighting dogs are saved but some are not adoptible, it is vary sad what theys people do to the dogs. they make them so mean, they have to be put down.

the same thing applies to rooster fighting.

i know many other countries like America and Australia and south Africa have tougher laws on animal abuse
Here in BRITAIN WE HAVE STILL TO CATCH up am sad to say

Well, I watch "Animal Cops" all of the time and sometimes it makes me wonder, if animals wouldn't have remained in the conditions they were in, than be "Humanely Euthanized". I KNOW that a lot of them are living under horrendous circumstances, but do you think they would rather be dead, if they could speak for themselves? I just always wonder about that when they say "they couldn't be safely adopted out, so we had to Humanely Euthanize" them ... ? sigh ...

if they could talk, we could explane that we mean no harm and there would be no need to euthanize them. but they can not and they could kill someone else. i do wish there was something we could do about it but as far as i can see there is nothing. i know a person who kept a dog so it would not get euthanized in solitary confinement, took good care of the dog even used a treed mill to exersize it, but it never got to play or see any thing but the back yard. whats worse solitary confinment or death? i do not know about any one else but being alone is not a life for a dog.

i agree with u parick they cant keep a dog inside so they exercised them on a treadmill but where did thet do the toilet did the humans clean it up ??/

Ban it. People can bet on anything. It doesn't have to be blood sport.
