NY: $7,000 reward offered for pit bull’s return

    BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) – An animal rescue group is offering a combined $7,000 reward for a dog that has gone missing from the Buffalo Animal Shelter.

    “Ginja” was seized in December 2013 along with three other dogs after police found them at the home of the pit bulls’ former owner, Shanon Richardson. All four of the dogs were malnourished and court documents show Richardson had treadmills, weights for the dogs’ necks, hormone growth pills and needles filled with fluids – all indications of dog fighting.

    Richardson, a cell block attendant employed by the City of Buffalo, was charged with six counts of animal cruelty. Then, months later, Ginja disappeared from the shelter. A shelter employee tells News 4 the dog was being housed in an area of the shelter that is accessible to the public.

    Guardians of Rescue, an animal rescue group, has put forward a $5,000 reward and combined it with a $2,000 reward from animal rights attorney, Matt Albert.

    If you have any information on the pit bull’s whereabouts, call police.

    It seems like every pit bull taken away by the animal control agencies is malnourished. This might actually be true sometimes, but I think it's an exaggeration in most cases. I think the thought of starving dogs makes the animal control people look better for taking the dogs from people. Then, once they feed them for a while, they go ahead and kill them! Animal welfare my ass!

    When have you ever heard the Humane Society say that dog looks real good very well taken care of the Humane Society will say he's not being taken care of he to skinny he has fleas he Scarred up. SO F### Humane Society and if it was my dog I would have done the same.

    how in the hell does having a treadmills and weight insinuate that they were fighting? Obviously the condition of the dogs says one thing. But how do they know those weights weren't for weight pulling? I'd hate to think that if someone came to my home and saw i have a carpet mill, spring pole, and weight pull sled they would think i was fighting my dog.

    In the eyes of the Humane Society. Those things you just mentioned makes you a do fighter. in Detroit owning a carpet mill is against the law I believe.

    i suppose those marks could be from a kennel accident or other things too but hey i don't think they considered it when they filed it. Maybe it was stolen to get some of the charges dropped that the person was wrongfully charged with. Who knows..

    you know 3-4 years ago when I got my first dog i didnt have fenced yard but now i got a break stick in every room, medical kit, 2 spring poles out back with some hides drying on trees, a freezer full of organ meat and a slatmill to come soon. im sure if someone wanted it bad enough they can put some charges on me and who to say im innocent? i getting the dog in shape to do some vermint hunting so im sure bite marks and scratches to follow soon. best thing you can do is take pictures of the small game you kill so you can back your story up if it comes down to it but we should not have to cover our tracks like this. ii would not be suprised if an angry neighbor called the authorities on this person for some unrelated dispute.
