As shocking as this headline is, it’s sadly very accurate. Just for the record: The Carson shelter was closed for Thanksgiving on 11/24 (sigh), closed the following day on 11/25 (??), and then reopened at 10a on 11/26.

The specific killing of the 18 Pit Bull-type dogs mentioned in the title all happened between the 25th & 26th, I have no outcomes for the 24th. These are the actual faces of the dogs (minus 1) that were killed:
