I couldn't find the exact article.but I read that he was a small mixed-breed puppy, and they think that his ears were cut down to use as bait for the pitbulls to know only the dogs that have cropped ears. But the story is very horrible how he was found in a dumpster by a newspaper boy and he was just a bloody mess. Not sure why they threw him in the trash if his ears were cut off and he was mulitate to be used as bait for pit bulls. Both items were in the same article, but it seems like one would not make the other true.

Those sickies are known for doing that. That football player Vic sh*t head did that. They don't give the dog anything for the pain, or an anesthetic, nor do they clean it, they are known for using garden shears and just cut them off. If the pup can't take the pain then they throw it away or kill it, because they believe that the pup isn't strong enough to handle the pain in the ring either. No words fit the crime, that I can post!

Reward increases in hurt puppy case The reward of information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for mutilating a puppy's ears has grown to $7,500. Animal Protection of New Mexico added funds to the existing $5,000 reward offered by the Santa Fe Animal Shelter & Humane Society in hopes of catching the perpetrators. The 6-week-old puppy, dubbed Petie by his rescuers, was found bloodied, freezing and nearly dead on the side of the road in La Cienega on Feb. 2. The pup's ears had been mostly chopped off. He is now recovering at a foster home. Intentionally or maliciously torturing, mutilating, injuring or poisoning an animal is a fourth-degree felony. Those with information are asked to call the New Mexico Attorney General's Cruelty Hotline at 877-5Humane (877-548-6263). Callers may remain anonymous
