(34,403 posts)6. This is a bait dog.
It was too horrible for me to describe, so I'm quoting Wikipedia:
"Bait" animals are animals used to test a dog's fighting instinct; they are often mauled or killed in the process. ... Often "bait" animals are stolen pets, puppies, kittens, rabbits, small dogs and even stock (pit bulls acquired by the dogfighting ring which appear to be passive or less dominant).
They're usually chained so they have no means of escape.

The fighting dogs are encouraged to attack the bait dog to get a taste of blood and to prepare them to fight with other fighting dogs while scumbags wager on which fighting dog will win.
A horrible and vile situation.
