The dogs are being cared for at an Animal Welfare League facility in Chicago Ridge. "You look in their eyes and they have that bewildered look, like, 'What did I do wrong?' And that's what's so sad," said Linda Estrada, director and president of Animal Welfare League. "It's not the animals who are bad, it's the people." Among the horrors authorities discovered when they raided the site was a blood-stained electrocution shed, presumably for dogs that lost the fight. The League will care for the dogs and try to re-socialize them, but if their aggression levels cant' be brought down, they may have to be put to sleep. "Their life will be lost because of these idiots, and for money," Estrada said.
