Hello. I'm Allison McNair. Welcome to NH Outlook.
script iconIntro Pittbulls
Return to index of stories...
One breed of dog getting negative press is American Pit Bull Terrier. Pit Bulls are considered by some to be lovable family pets. However, many Pit Bulls have been trained and bred to participate in Pit Bull fighting which is both dangerous and illegal. And many people will be surprised to hear that these Pit Bull fights are taking place closer to home than they might have guessed. Please keep in mind that some of the scenes you are about to see are graphic.
quick!

Man's best friend can also be one our greatest assets. Take for example the police dogs that patrol our streets. In New Hampshire there are nearly fifty police dog or K-9 units.
Recently a number of the state's crime fighting dogs and their handlers were honored at the first annual K-9 Handler's Appreciation Dinner. Some officers and their dogs were honored for their successful drug detection work, others for locating criminals and missing people.
Last week we were able to follow some of those K-9 units in training and on patrol. Producer Ben French introduces us to some of New Hampshire's working dogs.

When General Patton's troops hit the beaches of Sicily during World War II many had war dogs by their sides. Dogs have been used in conflicts ever since.
On June 22, in Barrington, these veterans were honored with the first war dog memorial to be built in New England. The American Legion Post 114 organized the event and helped raise the money for the monument. Phil Vaughn recently met with several war dog handlers - we share with you their stories.
