Rebecca Corry of the Stand Up For Pits Foundation commented on the statement:

“The human who did this didn’t think twice about abusing this dog so publicly and should be met with severe punishment and this establishment be held accountable as well,” she wrote. “Should all those dogs be removed and taken on by other rescues, the SUFP will help assists how we can if needed.”

The dog was brought to a veterinarian to be examined and is thankfully expected to be just fine.

10 Of The “Most Loyal” Dog Breeds On The Planet
Giving love and support to humans is something that some dogs do better than others.

While many dogs love everyone they meet and are willing to take treats or belly rubs from anyone, the pups we found are just the opposite.

These 10 dogs are some of the most loyal breeds on the planet. They are rock steady in their loyalty to their owner no matter what.

1) Akita

When the American Kennel Club (AKC) lists loyalty to describe the temperament of the Akita, you know they mean business. The beautiful double-coated working dog of Japanese ancestry is considered hardwired in protecting those she loves. They should be socialized with other dogs and people from the time they are puppies. Their silly, fun, but dignified personalities round out the loyal Akita.
