After a local arrest involving a dog fighting charge and the multiple disappearances of puppies and large dogs in Sapps and neighboring communities, citizens of Pickens County are concerned and appalled at the idea of such a barbaric and abusive practice happening in the community, right under their noses.

A Pit Bull, trained for dog fighting, has been euthanized after video evidence surfaced of the dog killing a puppy used as a “bait dog.” A “bait dog” is used for the sole purpose of teaching the fighting dog to attack and kill living canines for sport. The puppy’s owners received the video and after watching, notified authorities.
