How

Описание: Garret Wing, a retired police lieutenant from the City of Miami Police Department, where he significantly contributed to the K9 unit as both a handler and supervisor, is the owner and founder of American Standard Dog Training and DIYK9.com. His current mission is to aid both law enforcement K-9 handlers and civilian dog owners in optimizing their dogs’ training.

In this video, he sheds light on the persistent issue of illegal dog fighting, discussing its prevalence, intersections with other criminal activities and the severe consequences for those involved. Despite the decline in media coverage since the Michael Vick case in 2008, illegal dog fighting continues to thrive, often in conjunction with narcotics trafficking, illegal weapons, and human trafficking.

Wing highlights the potential for law enforcement professionals to encounter illegal dog fighting rings inadvertently during routine investigations and stresses the importance of not disregarding these findings. These instances can serve as entry points into broader criminal networks involved in various illegal activities. Under federal law, engaging in dog fighting, or any related activities, is a crime with significant legal repercussions, including imprisonment, fines, and more.

He further discusses the brutal nature of dog fighting, where dogs suffer severe and often fatal injuries. The fights, fueled by drugs like steroids, cocaine, and methamphetamines to enhance the dogs’ performance, end in tragedy more often than not. The surviving dogs face a grim future, with their chances of rehabilitation and adoption being minimal due to the extensive mental and physical trauma they endure.
