Bloodied Dog Used For ‘Bait’ in Fights and Found Wandering the Streets Deserves Justice

Target: Major Wayne Adkins, Broward Police Chief
Goal: Find person responsible for using innocent dog as “bait” for dog fighting.

A bloodied dog named Atlas was found wandering the streets. His face was gashed, bruised, and bleeding. His eyes were nearly swollen shut.

When rescuers arrived, Atlas was barely able to see and was experiencing blood loss and other internal injuries. Atlas was found wandering aimlessly in a parking lot in Pompano Beach.

Rescuers, from both South Florida Cats and Kittens and I Heart, assumed custody of Atlas and rushed him to a veterinary hospital where he received treatment for his extensive injuries.

According to representatives from I Heart, Atlas’ injuries are consistent with being used as a “bait dog” in a dog fighting ring. He does not appear to have been hit by a car.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Chief Adkins,

It appears a dog fighting ring is on-going in your jurisdiction. A bloodied dog named Atlas was found wandering the streets. His face was gashed, bruised, and bleeding. His eyes were nearly swollen shut.

When rescuers arrived, Atlas was barely able to see and was experiencing blood loss and other internal injuries. Atlas was found wandering aimlessly in a parking lot in Pompano Beach.

Rescuers, from both South Florida Cats and Kittens and I Heart, assumed custody of Atlas and rushed him to a veterinary hospital where he received treatment for his extensive injuries.

According to representatives from I Heart, Atlas’ injuries are consistent with being used as a “bait dog” in a dog fighting ring. He does not appear to have been hit by a car.

Please ensure that your department uses all resources necessary to finding and capturing the people involved in this dog fighting ring and, in particular, the person responsible for Atlas’ abuse.

Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

    Hopefully, the owners of that poor dog die broke and go straight to hell!

  2. Milantia Roy says:

    You cowards, you ill-born bastards! Let’s hope the judge in charge of this case puts you in jail.

  3. Patricia Schwarzmann says:

    Dear Chief Adkins,
    Crimes of this nature should be punished with jail and a heavy monetary penalty.
    Too bad they cannot be disposed of the minute they are identified.

  4. Teresa Zamalloa says:

    Those bastards are a scourge for the country, they don’t deserve to be loose – I hope they get at least 10 years behind bars

  5. Patricia Becky says:

    — in this dog fighting ring and, in particular, the person responsible for Atlas’ abuse.

    I CANNOT BELIEVE THESE HORRENDOUS CRIMES HAVE NOT BEEN STOPPED YET.

  6. Mary Young says:

    I say as all of us as animal loves make a big steal cage with a top and only one tiny small door just big enough for all the pitbulls to go through cause all the abuses of pitbulls will be already inside waiting and just let the pitbulls take care of all there abusers pay back time for all animal abusers

  7. Elease M. Bradford says:

    I’m so sorry to hear about the abuse poor, innocent Atlas was subjected to. I don’t understand how people get pleasure out of dog fighting. I hope the slimy snakes who used Atlas as a bait dog, are caught and severely punished. Get well soon Atlas and I hope you get justice.

  8. Dog fighting is against the law. Period. How this continues to rear such an ugly head is simply not understandable. Florida is not the best stay for animals and after reading this I understand why. The people running the dog fighting ring must know the right people to look the other way. To allow such an abused animal to walk the streets is a crime in and of itself. Our investigations of such crimes are not all in vain yet it appears no one of authority is really interested in stopping such crimes as they continue. Like Please, I hope Atlas finds a forever family for no dog deserves it more.

    • At least the poor dog was able to get away somehow whether on his own or abandoned by these POS. Either way…he now has a chance to LIVE. So thank god for that. And yes, these SOBs need to be found shut down and tried!

  9. Wish we could torture to death all these INBRED HUMAN GARBAGE!! Seriously,,,, there are NO words strong enough to describe these evil, good for NOTHING putrid SHIT,, why the fuck are they allowed to exist??? they’ve all been through the court system, for violent shit,,, NO DOUBT,, judges need to WAKE UP and get this useless filth OUT OF SOCIETY!!!! All they do is cause horrendous suffering & death to every living being that can not defend themselves. Where is the common sense, morals & conscience of all those in society with the power to STOP IT!!????
    ANIMALS ARE NOT ON THIS EARTH TO BE TORTURED, RAPED, NEGLECTED, & MURDERED IN THE MOST EVIL WAYS BY ALL THIS EVIL INBRED SCUM,, Yet all these highly educated people with power don’t see this is SO WRONG… WTF!!!! THEY ARE ALL EVIL TOO !!!!!!!!!!!!
    FUCK THEM ALL TO HELL> THAT’S WHERE THEY ALL BELONG!!!!

  10. Just no words to express my disgust at the fact that dog fighting is so prevalent in a so called civilized country and it always seems to go unpunished. Americans need to get out of their bubble and see the rest of the world and find out what it thinks of you. It is unsolved brutality like this that colours our perception of you. It does seem in any country no one gets what they deserve for doing this.

    This makes me sick and my heart breaks for this poor dog and all the others who are being abused and used for dog fighting. They must be found and Justice for these helpless animals are a must. Rid the world of these evil humans, so no other animals become victims to the monsters they are. These animals feel pain and are living beings. Use every resource to find who did this and don’t just give them a slap on the wrist. Felony charges to the max and more.

    How can I adopt Atlas?

    FLORIDA IS A SHITHOLE STATE RUN BY DARK AGES PSYCHOPATHS AND WHEN IT WASHES AWAY INTO THE OCEAN ITS NOT A MOMENT TOO SOON….

    I would love to gather every animal abuser in this country and have at them with a Karma bat. I wouldn’t stop until they’re all dead. And before one of you stupid idiots say “well, isn’t that killing another animal?” you need to figure out that people have choices on whether to abuse/torture/kill innocent animals or not. The ones that make the choice to do this are evil and there is no fixing them. They will keep doing it and, more than likely, graduate to people. These innocent animals have no choice – they’re in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong and evil people. I also have no patience for stupid people so those of you that try that stupid reasoning need to start thinking it through a little more. If you’re an animal abuser, find me and we’ll have a meeting of the minds (Karma bat, taser, tire iron – you get the idea).

    I would love to see an animal superhero hunt down and find all animal fighting rings and take care of them ALL!!!!! Our justice systems worldwide seem to be lacking……

  16. Jacqueline O'Connor says:

    Scum of the Earth!!! I hope they fucking die a slow drawn out painful death!! The absolute shit of society!!

  17. goh maria says:

    There is no better place for these sick bastards except prison and please shut down all dog fighting rings!

  18. Nadine Brundage says:

    Low life useless and brainless subhuman trash are involved in dog fighting and I’m sure locals and officials are aware of who these scum are but do not bother to do anything about it. The innocent animals are the ones who suffer because of these assholes. I speak for the voiceless and everyone of these low life’s needs to pay and face serious consequences for animal cruelty.

  19. my heart hurts to see this baby. humans are the absolute worst .

  20. Maria Lavorato says:

    I am so heartbroken for what you endured Atlas…poor sweet little pit bulls …they are forever tortured.

    Major Wayne Adkins, Broward Police Chief…these rings have to be shut down ….why are they still able to operate?

    The scum of the earth that subject a living being to such torture can not be loose to roam this planet! They need to be hunted down and punished to the full. Someone knows something!!!! Please do not let up on this investigation and give Atlas and all the other innocent animals their justice. Animals can’t call the police for help, so please do whatever it takes to bring this ring down and follow with lengthy jail time, during which I hope they all end up tortured the same way Atlas did.

    They deserve nothing less than a long painful slow slow death!
