Owners Offered $10 to Get Pit Bulls Fixed
- Share via
The Peninsula Humane Society is offering $10 to pit bull owners who bring in their dogs for free spaying or neutering.
The move comes weeks after two family pit bulls killed 12-year-old Nicholas Faibish in San Francisco.
Humane Society spokesman Scott Delucchi said the payment and free medical services are available to owners of pit bulls and pit mixes. Spayed or neutered dogs are less aggressive and less likely to roam.
