Miami-Dade County Animal Services rescued a group of dogs believed to be used for trunking.
A Good Samaritan called animal services Wednesday, saying a pet owner in the Goulds repetitively threw dogs in a trunk and let them fight to the death.
"[They] put the dogs in the trunk, lock it up, and they run around, put the music on very, very loud so no one can hear it," said Dahlia Canes with Miami Coalition Against Breed Specific Legislation. "After 10 or 15 minutes, they stop. The dead dog they throw out and the winner keeps going with it."
When authorities responded, they found five adult dogs and four puppies in crates.
"The kennels did not have any water, food, or adequate shelter," said Luis Salgado with Miami-Dade County Animal Services. "They were in feces and urine so the conditions were pretty bad."

(7,932 posts)1. These people have do not care about life, weather animal or human
yet they rarely get any significant time away from society. Vick got 23 months, got out and signed a multi-million dollar contract, while we are locking up kids for decades for having small amounts of week on them. Our "justice" system and our society is so fucked up its not even funny anymore.

(9,527 posts)6. From the title, I thought that this was going to be about
people transporting their dogs in the trunk so as to not get fur in the car and dogs dying because of the heat. Apparently I can still underestimate the vileness our species can come up with.
