Sheriff: 2 Dogs at DMX Home Had Wounds


PHOENIX (AP) ? Two dogs found buried at a home belonging to DMX had serious wounds, said authorities investigating animal neglect allegations.

One of the dogs had serious bite wounds and another had trauma to its abdomen, but exact causes of death were not determined, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said Saturday. A third dog carcass had been burned so badly an exam was inconclusive.

The remains were dug up on Aug. 24, when sheriff's investigators probing allegations of animal neglect raided the rapper's home in north Phoenix.

Authorities also seized 12 live pit bulls, numerous weapons, and about a quarter-ounce of marijuana in a bedroom, Arpaio said. The sheriff initially said a half-pound of suspected narcotics was found, but tests showed the substance was not illegal drugs.

Anyone busted and convicted of this type of crime needs to be dealt with harshly. The culture that surrounds dog fighting and cock fighting is despicable.

Happily, I've never heard of 'DMX'.

Well DMX is a dog "lover", especially pit bulls, in the sense that he has One Love BOOMER tattooed on his back for his first dog and had many dog references on his first cd, as well as seeing him say he’s a huge dog lover on MTV or some such nonsense. But it also wouldn't surprise me if he was involved with this stuff as his 5th cd is called grand champ(pointed out below by MoC.'s bottle of Goose), and we all know now from reading the Vick deposition that Grand Champ is a dog that wins 5 fight consecutively.

I guess he was convicted in 2002 for animal cruelty for neglecting 13 dogs and was senteced to community service. DMX being arrested for anything is no surprise at all.

Quite possibly the most educational post I've ever read.

Pretty sure DMX has had some vicious pit bulls featured in some of his music videos.

wouldn't surprise me to see he is involved in dog fighting.
