Pit Bull Puppies Poisoned in Central PA. Two Die.

People, man. People.

Not quite sure what it would take for someone to decide that it was time to poison some puppies, but, whatever punishment they eventually get, when they are hopefully caught, won’t be harsh enough.

HOLLIDAYSBURG, Pa. (AP) — A central Pennsylvania event to raise awareness of animal rescue organizations has turned tragic.

Two pit bull puppies have died and three others are being treated by a vet after an apparent poisoning at the first annual Central Pennsylvania Pit Bull Awareness Day in Hollidaysburg.

A veterinarian at Ebensburg Animal Hospital who is treating the puppies says it looks like the 8-week-old puppies were given some kind of toxin at the event on Saturday.

So, someone came to pit bull awareness day and decided to poison some puppies because why exactly?

Sure, pit bulls do have a convoluted reputation, however, these were puppies who were ostensibly there by their owners to show how, if reared properly, they can be good pets.

People, man. People.
