“In July, the pound stopped accepting more animals for a month because the city hadn’t paid a service that hauls away euthanized animals for cremation at a cost of about $20,000 a year. The freezers were packed with carcasses, and pens were full of live animals until the bill was paid.[…] Pit bulls and breeds mixed with them dominate Detroit’s stray population because of widespread dog fighting, said [Harry Ward, head of animal control.]. Males are aggressive in mating, so they proliferate, he added.”
