I do not understand why heartless & cruel people do this. I feel so sorry for the dogs & it makes me sick & so angry that people do this. They deserve punishment big time.

Harsher criminal sentences would be a start.

Our government lawmakers and local police need to work together to crack down on any and all people who abuse animals. Animal fighting of any kind should have a zero tolarance law. Automatic jail time , no early release for good behavior.

Sandra Hauss

It is about time all animal abusers serve jail time and are forced to do community service. It is disgraceful to let them go back to their lives with no repercussions. Animal abuse is too disgusting to dignify. It is time to put a legally enforced stop to it.

Fighting any kind of dogs is beyond wrong!! They don't have a voice to say NO!! But we do have voices!! We all need to stand up for these dogs! We need to make it to where if someone is caught dog fighting or even caught at a dog fight, they should be punished to the FULLEST EXTENT of the law!! No more of this "slap on the wrist" stuff!! Dogs are just furry little people!! They need our help!!!!

This Act is long long long overdue! Dog fighting, cock fighting and whatever else people might decide to fight in the future needs to stop! If they get charged with a federal offense maybe it will knock some sense into them and they will stop doing this to these animals. I truly truly hope this bill passes, and I have emailed my Congressman and I will be sure to follow this story.


I think that the main animal organizations which have mikkions of dollars should have a public campaign and offer $10,00 to anyone who turns in a dog fighting ring that actually goes to trial and is convicted and the dogs released to rescue. That will be the way to get to the people who can lead us to the criminals and the locations of the fighter. Money talks and it will talk to people in the know. It is a worthwhile way to spend the money that animal lovers donate to really help dogs.


To all the people that are involved in dog fighting you disgust me and all the other people out there that would agree with me if you are caught doing this u should be thrown in the slammer and get the same treatment as you gave those dogs. Theses dogs can not talk or tell u what's wrong but when u look into there eyes you would know there is something wrong and they are looking at you tell you they need H E L P so if you see any animal being miss treated please look into it you will be saving there lives!!!!!!!


I say put all the people who are responsible in dog fighting and ship them over to the middle east and fight them

This is wrong! People who get a thrill off of animals fighing are serial killers budding. I can't see how anyone can get a thrill over this. Just because they can't talk to you doesn't man they have no feelings. All my pets are family they're treated like my kids
