Not a dogfighting ring, or a cockfighting ring, but a rescue. An 18 year old one, in fact. 18 years of saving animals from kill shelters, giving them a second chance. That deserves a medal. But what it gets is an arrest.
This is why, rescuers, you don’t allow adopters into your homes anymore. You can’t. It isn’t safe. Should it be safe? Well, we think so. But right here, right now, it isn’t. Set up meetups at local pet stores, or deliver the animals to the adopters. But don’t, for any reason, let them into your house.
Officers from the Prince William County Police Department’s Animal Control Bureau were at a dog rescue for the better part of Monday after receiving a complaint of animal cruelty that provided police with new information into an ongoing investigation.
When does it stop? When we make it stop. Which I fear will be no time soon.
