I'm posting this here as well, because with all the Pit Bull news, it's liable to get lost on the News Board. This is really a sad, disgusting, horrifying thing and I'm just sick over it.

Animal Tortured, Reward Offered for Attackers

The hunt is on for the person who chained a pregnant dog down, beat it to death, and left its body hanging in a Philadelphia schoolyard.
Animal control officers say someone called them to say a dead dog was hanging on a fence near an abandoned school at 27th and Huntingdon.
When they got there they found the dead pit bull tied to a fence. The area filled with filth and debris and the pieces of rocks and concrete used to hit the dog were covered in blood.
“Just to think someone could throw something at an animal like that and hear it cry out and continue to throw stuff at the dog… it’s heartbreaking,” said Officer Wayne Smith of the PA SPCA.
The SPCA released disturbing pictures in the hope someone will come forward.
A $1000 reward has been posted for information leading to the arrest.
Animal cruelty is a misdemeanor; even if the person/people who did this are caught, they will probably not face any jail time.
