"Don't Make Me Fight" He Cries Out Loud While They Bite Him All Over

Heartless monsters continue to use innocent dogs for their entertainment. Dogfighting still exists, especially in parts of the world where it isn’t illegal or the laws aren’t strictly enforced. Sometimes the dogs used as ‘bait’ to train the fighters are dumped when they are severely injured and become a liability. Dogs like Phoenix fall victim to this every single day. By sharing his story, we can bring awareness to a problem that still exists despite what people think.

Phoenix was dumped on the streets near Mexicali. His body was covered in horrific wounds. He was so skinny and scared. His head had been bitten so many times that it was swollen beyond recognition. It was so swollen, in fact, that he could no longer open his eyes.

More info and photos at site, if you need a good cry.....

Why are dogs so good to us, even after they are treated this way? I am forever haunted by the pic of the pit puppy that was so sweet, and refused to fight. His, "owners", cut his ears off and threw them on the sidewalk. The photo was the puppy sitting there looking at his own ears. No mention of his eventual fate.
