What should one do with pitt bulls that aren't good fighters. Actually, what to do with good fighting pit pulls when they get old and want to retire. This last week there were a couple of articles about pit bulls attacking humans. One was a little boy who had the dog since it was a pup and was his master. Ocassionally I have to trap racoons as they terrorize our cats and come into the cat doors to eath food in our kitchen. Last year we became hesitant to trap them as we found out that are not set free in the wild as we had thought; but rather, are killed in some fashion. Last weekend I caught one, called the city animal control and they said they would pick up the 'invader' within 24 hours. Well, it was quite hot 8 hours into the waiting, and I put a blanket over the cage and gave the racoon some dry food. My wife moved that cage over into the shade and was about to bring some water when the animal control guy picked it up. He left a note warning us about not feeding and watering the animal we had trapped.
