Alleged pit bull operation busted in south St. Louis City

they're taking out the breeders now.

ST. LOUIS (KMOV) - An alleged pit bull breeding operation in south St. Louis City has been shut down.

Animal control officers busted the breeder Sunday morning inside a home on the 5600 block of Potomac.

Officers said they made the discovery after neighbors contacted authorities.

One dog was found dead at the scene.

An investigation is ongoing. Stray Rescue is leading the effort.

I have so many questions,was this a BYB? How long has it been going on? Were they just Pit bulls?

How come they can rush right into stopping one if it involves our dogs,but when it's other breeds,they let it continue to happen?

link didnt work for me. do they have a pitbull ban there or something?

 

[Xiahko]

They must have just deleted it. No ban,they just arrested a lady who was breeding them.

No idea what they did with the dogs the whole article was sketchy.

hmmmmm, maybe there was reason besides just the dogs , maybe a home raid and then seized the dogs as well? sounds incomplete :s

 

[Xiahko]

They're making it sound like it was a breeding operation,like a puppy mill.

Well it seems alarming that a dog was found dead though...

the one i seen said it was a dog fighting ring

Is nobody alarmed that a local dog rescue is leading the investigation rather than the police?

just google it. the story has suddenly changed. It always happens like this. dead dog could have been a stillborn pup for all we know. there are no details so everyone will imagine the worst and run with it. if a rescue is running the investigation, they are going to add tons of drama to a not so imoprtant issue.

Agree 100% on that note!
