This was a project I had to do for Short Story creative writing class in college. I wrote this in honor of the thousands of dogs caught in the hellish world that is dog fighting.
I also wrote this in honor of my own pit bull/boxer mix, Rojo, whom we found roaming our neighborhood frightfully skinny and afraid. I hate to think about the life my sweet girl COULD have landed in.
RED is not a true story but for a lot of dogs out there, it is the life they live. I post this in hopes that those who read it will become more aware of the world of dog fighting and become inspired to do more to prevent it. I hope you enjoy RED as much as it breaks your heart.
