People involved in dog fighting in Scotland, train their dogs using live bait animals. They get those animals in different ways. One method is to answer ads about rehoming a family pet. The person claims to want the pet and promises the best of loving care. Then he goes home and throws the pet to his fighting dog for it to rip to shreds, alive as a way of training his dog to kill. (excuse me while I throw up)
The Scottish SPCA is aware of the problem. They have even caught someone and charged him, but they know there are others. This practice is widespread. The number of reports they have received has increased greatly. It is going to take a lot to shut this brutal sport down.
Until then, people need to be very careful when they rehome pets. The SPCA encourages people to bring their pets to the shelters where experienced staff will be part of the rehoming. Certainly they would notice if the same person came back and tried to get another pet with the same story about why they want it.

This is a really sick situation. There are people living and working in normal communities who are clearly very sick individuals.
Their cruelty to animals is deliberate and shows a total lack of human feeling and compassion.
These are sick people. Jail is too good for them. How about a criminal ward of a mental hospital. That is where they belong.
Right now a neighbour has taken in an older brindled boxer, the same colour as his beautiful young female. When I met Louie I was stunned by what I saw. Louie had been used as a bait dog. He is covered in scars where fighting dogs savaged him and his eyes are missing. Louie is the most beautiful dog I know. His new owner is determined to give him as many loving years as possible. He is such a gentle dog and it breaks my heart to think of what he suffered.
How horrible to think that people's beloved pets end their lives being cruelly savaged like that.
