Dogfighting Hot Line

Dogfighting pits two dogs against each other in fights that continue until one animal is dead, or maimed to the point that he cannot continue. Dogs used for fighting suffer gruesome, bloody injuries and often die for the sake of gambling and entertainment.

The Humane Society of the United States has mounted a major campaign against dogfighting and has set up hotlines in various states to encourage people to report dogfighting activities.

If you have information about illegal dogfighting in Georgia, call 1-877-TIP-HSUS (847-4787) with your tip. If you wish to remain anonymous, let the agent to whom you give your tip know that you do not want your identity released to the public.
