On July 26th, two dogs got out of their home because a child got a hold of the garage door remote and accidentally pressed the button. A family member was watching the kids and didn’t even realize what had happened and that the dogs were loose. The dogs, Dre and Machomotto, were running amuck thru the neighborhood. Dre was barking at people and apparently some lady jumped into her car...for whatever that is worth. Several people called animal control and someone called 911 reporting vicious dogs running loose. Supposedly it took 5 officers to obtain Dre, thou NOT ONE person was injured; bitten or scratched. 

Imagine having 5 strangers chasing you. 

The police/animal control released MachoMotto (not a Pit Bull), but have have quarantined Dre (Pit Bull, not even sure if he's full or mix) labeling him "vicious". 

Dre has a new court date of August 10th at 8:30am. Both a Police Officer and an Animal Control Officer are going to court to plea with the judge to have "the dog" destroyed. To clarify, his name is Dre and he is a family member who has never hurt anyone. 

Please sign this petition and show Brighton, CO that falsely labeling a dog who has hurt noone will NOT be accepted! If you live localy, please consider coming to the court and showing your support. 

Brighton Municipal Court 3401 E Bromley Lane. THIS IS UNFAIR AND UNJUST... DOES HE LOOK VICOUS TO YOU???

UPDATE: More details about what happened, what the family was told and how they are handling it here: bit.ly/MSqzll and here: http://bit.ly/Ptvo6v
