My next door neighbors have two big Pitties and another dog in their yard that I am feeding cookies every morning. They are right next to my cats' pen. One morning the sixth grade boy who lives there was out and he said they were thinking of fighting one of the dogs.

I told him that the dog was much too nice to do that. He is a real sweet dog. The kid seemed surprised when I told him dog fighting is illegal.

I later found out that the dogs in his yard aren't even his; (they are dog sitting long term).

Kids this age often open their mouths before they put their minds in gear. I wouldn't let it bother me much.
