"BUFFALO, NY (WKBW) - Adam Arroyo has lived in his Breckenridge apartment for three years but has never experienced a day like this past Monday; when police busted down his door in search of drugs, shooting and killing his dog in the process.
"She's over here, chained up, and look at all these bullet holes man. Look at the blood right here," Arroyo explained as he showed Eyewitness cameras where his pit bull mix Cindy had been shot.
"She was tied up in the kitchen like I tie her up every single day, and they shot her for no reason."
When Arroyo returned home Monday evening he found his apartment torn apart, door busted down and several bullet holes in his kitchen wall.
He also found a search warrant for 304 Breckenridge, upper apartment.
The suspect named in the warrant was described as a black male and was wanted on suspicion of dealing crack.
Arroyo is Hispanic and lives at 304 Breckenridge, upper-rear apartment, which has a completely separate entrance and is clearly marked on his mail box.
Reporter: "You have never used or sold drugs in this apartment?" Arroyo: "Never. Never. I don't do drugs. I'm a United States veteran. I work everyday. I'm just trying to live my life."
Arroyo is a combat veteran who served in Iraq and plans to join the National Guard. This incident, however has left him heart-broken and angry.
"For police to wrongfully come into my house and murder my dog... It wasn't that they felt threatened. No. They murdered my dog," said Arroyo, beginning to tear up.
"That was my dog, man. That was my dog. They didn't have to do that, you know. They didn't have to do that."
Arroyo now has to pay to have Cindy cremated. He also had to repair his door at his own cost and has had to miss work.
He plans now to press charges against the City of Buffalo.
Buffalo Police spokesperson Michael DeGeorge says Internal Affairs has launched an investigation into the case, but that police believe they had the proper address.
He also says detectives "don't believe the dog was chained or leashed" when they executed the raid. Adding that if any wrong doing is found in the investigation that officers will face consequences.
DeGeorge could not comment on whether officers found any drugs inside the apartment."

http://www.examiner.com/article/off-duty-officer-shoots-and-kills- pit-bull-puppy-chicago
"A four-month old puppy was shot and killed by an off-duty Chicago, Ill., police officer on Friday afternoon, and the puppy's owner is disputing the officer's recount of what took place, reported Sunday's CBS Chicago.
The man who shot the puppy, a pit bull, lives near the home where the puppy was shot and killed. He claims that he was walking with his son, who was riding a bike, and the pup charged them.
The man, an eight year veteran of the force, shot the 35 pound puppy eight times.
The puppy's guardian, Samantha Maglaya, claims that there was no child in sight, and her puppy was not aggressive, telling NBC Chicago:
He would sit in the yard and listen to the birds. He didn't even bark. He never growled,
He was the biggest baby.
Maglaya describes the moment just after the puppy, Maximus, was shot:
I ran to my dog and my kids were standing all around him screaming and crying,
Though the puppy was rushed to a veterinarian, he could not be saved.
Though the off-duty officer defends his actions, stating that the puppy charged his son, Maglaya disputes what took place, stating:
There was no son there. The whole time I was holding my dog and he was bleeding all over us and the kids are screaming and crying, his son was not there.
Neighbors support Maglaya's version; they have stated that the little boy was more than a block away and that the puppy never made a sound.
The incident is being investigated." |  |  |  |  |

| Barked: Wed Apr 3, '13 5:08pm PST |  |  |  |  | Dave Wilson the creator of the American Bully says himself that more dogs were included to create the ambully than just the AST and the APBT, that may have been the original cross but deffinetly not the only cross used in a lot of different lines. So how is it that a dog that could be part mastiff or part english bull dog is still a "Pit bull". Dave wilson ALSO said his dogs were NOT pit bulls but a new breed.
Yes the PUBLIC doesn't know how to identify the different breeds which is sad, so when someone refers to my dog as a apbt, I promptly correct them.. American Bullies shouldn't be called pit bulls because they are not. It's sad that the public thinks they are, and when they see a real pit bull they think it's still a puppy or not even a pit bull at all.I could see how someone could make the arguement that an AST is like a show bred APBT, but i do not see how someone could say that the Ambully and the SBT are the same breed as the APBT.
But i've argued this far too many times i recommend you check out pit bull chat.com, the other members there would be able to explain to you the differences between the breeds more eloquently. But this thread is just going in circles, and is going off topic. No one is gonna change their mind here, so i will just end it at that, and will no longer be visiting this thread.
Here are some links you may want to check out.
