OMG that's awful .... poor poor baby. 

RIP Oreo play hard at the bridge little one and know that NOT all humans cared so little for you as your "owners" obviously did.  :hug:

I would imagine the usual reason Claire. They cared less about giving Oreo a chance and more about "sorting out the situation." (Not that there really was one.)

The owners put Oreo to sleep before transport could be arranged. :(

RIP, Oreo. Life treated you very unfairly.

Are you a member of Facebook Daisy? (or Den!) Check out a group called "These dogs urgently need homes" - about 80% of them are staffies or "dangerous dog" breeds.

Their history goes way, way, way back to when Bulldogs were crossed with Terriers. Staffies were originally bred for bull baiting, it was both for purpose and entertainment back in those days bull/bear baiting was a form of entertainment. They were also bred/used for dog fighting, so in short blood sports.

EXTREMELY URGENT - another Staffy needing a home RIP Oreo
« Reply #1 on: May 23, 2009, 14:00:57 PM »
Taken from a rescue workers Facebook page:

Oreo - Due to be put to sleep in next couple of days. Oreo managed to get in with the family rabbit 6 months ago and killed it. The owner believes that this means that he has blood lust and will attack the baby when it is born. He has been assessed by a vet and has been confirmed to have a great temperament.

Oreo is in Leatherhead,Surrey.
