Advice Requested

[Dagney]

A friend of mine has discovered that a friend of hers has a pit bull that has been brutalized while in the care of a room mate (The friend was out of town overnight, and came home to find the animal in a very sad shape) - this poor creature has had a leg broken, been stabbed, and has been burnt with a clothing iron. (And that's just the beginning, there has been a lot more torture that we know we don't know about) It is the Vets opinion that the dog should be put to sleep, due to the fact that he's so traumatized, and has very little chance of being saved even with extremely heroic medical measures.

The friend lives in Texas, and this is where the abuse occurred. (We're trying to get pictures to support our case).

I know we have a few resident Texans on board, and I was wondering if they would be able to tell me of whom we could contact in Texas to report this abuse.

The dog is currently in Pennsylvania (the friend drove all night to get the dog away from the abusive situation, and to a vet that he trusts), but we are concerned that contacting the SPCA here would put the friend into a situation where he is considered suspect for the abuse.
