Animal Cops

I love to watch the show Animal Cops on Animal Planet. Eventhough it breaks my heart to see those poor animals in the unlivable conditions, but it's great when they show that the animal has been adopted out. Well this evening as I was laying across the couch with Storm by my side, I was watching Animal Cops Houston. I am a little perturbed. The cops went to an abanded house that had two terrier mixes with 4 puppies, but 1 had died and in the house were 2 pitbulls. Of course they went into the house with caution (as you should with ANY dog that you don't know) and realized and stated on the show that the pit bulls did NOT show ANY signs of aggression. (Get the point... no aggression.) They were cute pitties, one was tri-colored and the other was a black/brown brindle. Their tails were wagging and they were excited and happy to see those cops. (Little did the dogs know what was in their future.)

After the cops put all the dogs in the travel carriers, one cop made the comment, that it was a good day, they rescued some puppies with their parents and got some pit bulls off the streets. *Urrgggh* Pit bulls off the streets???? They were friendly, no aggression. Needless to say, that ticked me off. So I continued to watch to see what they would do with the FRIENDLY pitties.

With the terrier puppies, they had to do a blood transfusion, which did save their lives. After a week or so, they regained all their strength and were growing like little weeds. They were even living with a foster mom.

During the whole show, I kept waiting. NOTHING was mentioned about the pitties... AT ALL. No temperment tests, no help, no story. So that only leads me to believe that with the comment that was made by the cop, they were put down. What kind of help was that? I am really disappointed in the Animal Cops show.
