Report dog fighting. Collect $5,000

There is a dog fighting operation in or around the Warrendale neighborhood in Detroit. I don't know much about it, except that dogs used in it have been dumped inside Rouge Park.

This is why I'm glad that the Humane Society of the United States is offering a $5,000 reward for information regarding dog fighting operations, such the one that has apparently set up shop in our neighborhood. I'm confident that $5,000 will unlock someone's lips - especially since you can collect it anonymously.

Anyone with information about dog fighting in Detroit or elsewhere is asked to call the Humane Society at 1-877-TIP-HSUS. Your identity will be protected and you can collect $5,000 for turning these people in.
