Court House - The ASPCA named April 8 Dog Fighting Awareness Day in Prevention of Cruelty to Animals month. President Obama made attending a dog fight a federal crime, as is training and fighting dogs. Dogs used in fighting may have fresh or old scars, be chained away from other dogs, have cropped ears, and be exercised for hours. Report your suspicions to the police. Puppies raised to fight who will not are used as bait, as are stolen pet dogs. Thousands of dogs are fought each year and need your help. If you see something, say something.
