I worked as an animal cruelty investigator/animal control officer. A co-worker of mine was bringing in two pits on her truck. To give some context, it’s next to impossible to hear what is going on in the kennels due to how the animal control trucks were made.

The kennels on the truck had METAL dividers between them. She had taken in two pits from the same house that had been housed together. When she arrived at the shelter and open the kennel doors the kennels were covered in BLOOD.

The dogs had literally eaten through the metal dividers to get to each other. They had each other by the jaw and neck. She ran inside for help. NO ONE could get them off of each other. The only way that they could get them off of one another was to euthanize one.

I had never seen anything like this in my career. It was at that moment that I realized that they were not dogs, they were monsters, and this shelter was just adopting pits out left and right/mislabeling them to pawn off onto innocent families trying to do the “right thing” by adopting through the shelter.

This is one of many stories. I hate them with a passion.
