Dogs Reportedly Starved and Hurt in Suspected Fighting Ring Deserve Justice

Target: Kent Lovern, Milwaukee District Attorney, Wisconsin

Goal: Ensure maximum penalties for alleged dog fighting and mistreatment and secure proper care for all rescued animals.

A deeply troubling case of suspected animal abuse has come to light, as six dogs were reportedly trained for fighting and kept in horrific conditions. Allegations include emaciation, untreated injuries, and neglect, with dogs confined in cages surrounded by feces and deprived of adequate food and water. One dog was described as visibly trembling from the cold, while others bore scars on their faces and forearms, reportedly evidence of forced participation in dog fights.

According to reports, the accused individual used brutal training techniques, including suspending dogs from ropes to strengthen their jaws for combat. This apparent cruelty not only inflicts unimaginable suffering on defenseless animals but also perpetuates a cycle of violence that endangers communities.

Sign below and demand authorities apply the full force of Wisconsin’s laws against animal fighting and mistreatment in this case and ensure proper care and rehabilitation for the rescued dogs.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear DA Kent Lovern,

The recent case involving the alleged training of dogs for fighting in Milwaukee has shocked the community. Reports indicate that six dogs were rescued from squalid and abusive conditions, with some emaciated, injured, and visibly suffering. Allegations of brutal training methods, including suspending dogs from ropes to strengthen their jaws for combat, highlight the severe cruelty allegedly inflicted on these defenseless animals.

Animal fighting is a heinous act that not only causes immense suffering to the animals involved but also fosters a culture of violence and criminal activity within communities. Wisconsin’s laws prohibiting animal fighting and mistreatment must be enforced to the fullest extent to ensure justice for these animals and to deter similar crimes in the future.

We urge you to pursue the maximum penalties for the accused and to ensure the rescued dogs receive the medical care and rehabilitation they require. By taking decisive action, you can reaffirm the importance of animal welfare and send a clear message that cruelty will not be tolerated.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]
