The+neglected+dogs

The most neglected dogs in the world are pit bulls. Pit bulls are great pets that are very protective of their owners. Pit bulls are very intelligent creatures that are also used to guard houses, and are extremely athletic. Even though these seem like great and harmless attributes, these are also gold mines for people that use their dogs to compete in dog fights. Dog fights are usually between two pit bulls trained to kill other dogs. Two owners hold the two dogs at close range to get them excited for the fight, then they are both released and fight till the death, then the owner of the winner is awarded money. This whole competition of dog fighting is illegal, and can mean years in prison if caught and convicted. One of the most publicly announced cases of dog fighting was the Michael Vick (NFL quarterback) case, which was considered animal cruelty, and landed him in prison for two years.
