DMX shows us how not to treat our pets
Every week we pick a theme to explore in more depth, and this week that theme is eco-friendly pets. To read all our posts related to this theme, click here.You might think that after the Michael Vick drama, celebrity pit bull owners might have realized that they were under intense scrutiny by -- pardon the pun -- watchdog groups. Apparently, some of them didn't get the memo. After having multiple run-ins with the law over alleged animal cruelty, rapper DMX is finally facing some serious consequences for his not-so-humane treatment of pit bulls.
Deputies arrested him on charges of animal cruelty and drug possession at his home in Arizona Friday, after they found 3 pit bull carcasses partially buried on his property. One of the dogs had apparently been burned. That was enough of a reason for animal control to seize the rapper's 5 pit bull mixes. And get this, authorities seized 12 underfed pit bulls from DMX's property around the time of the Michael Vick case last year -- only they didn't find evidence of dog-fighting. This time, it looks like they've already got a much stronger case against him.
