HIS FRIEND’S DOG BEHIND A PICKUP FOR THREE MILES. JOE VIGIL IS LIVE TONIGHT IN MEADOW LAKE WHERE HE TALKED TO THE DOG'S OWNER ...AND TO THE DOG DRAGGER. WE DO WANT TO WARN YOU RIGHT AWAY THAT MANY OF THE DETAILS ARE DISTURBING. ANIMAL CONTROL WAS ABLE TO PINPOINT EXACTLY HOW FAR THE PITBULL WAS DRAGGED---BY FOLLOWING THE BLOOD TRAIL. DRAG MARKS TELL THE SAD STORY. A ONE AND A HALF YEAR OLD PITBULL NAMED GOLIATH ---CHAINED TO THE BACK OF A TRUCK--- FRANTICALLY TRIED TO KEEP UP ON MEADOW LAKE ROAD. 'The dog probably ran for about seven tenths of a mile trying to keep up.' A VALIANT EFFORT BUT THERE WAS JUST NO WAY GOLIATH COULD KEEP UP TWO MORE MILES. 'Scrape marks drag marks his foot pads raw and worn from trying to keep up his face and head was damaged.''I feel terrible for the animal.' THE DOG'S OWNER IS ALSO SICK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED. 'It just sucks because I've had him since he's six weeks old.' THE MAN'S FRIEND 18 YEAR OLD MICHAEL SANCHEZ ADMITS HE WAS DRIVING. 'It was an accident I didn't wish for it to happen.'SANCHEZ SAYS THE DOG WAS CHAINED TO THE TRUCK TO KEEP IT AWAY FROM AN ABANDONED PITBULL THE MEN TOOK IN. SANCHEZ SAYS HE GOT AN EMERGENCY CALL FROM HIS FIANCE. STILL CHAINED-- HE PUT GOLIATH IN THE TRUCK'S BED AND TOOK OFF. ANIMAL CONTROL THINKS GOLIATH JUMPED OUT RIGHT AWAY ON A SIDE ROAD WHERE HE KEPT UP. THEN SANCHEZ TURNED ONTO THE HIGHER SPEED MEADOW LAKE ROAD UNAWARE WHAT WAS GOING ON. 'A car came behind me flashing its lights and I pulled over to see what the problem was.' EVEN AFTER THE HORRIBLE DEATH THE DOG'S OWNER ISN'T UPSET WITH SANCHEZ. 'I know he didn't mean it because he just had just recently lost a pitbull too. He loved that dog, I loved that dog. He just came back and told me right away as soon as he walked in I didn't mean to I'm sorry.''It was a total accident and I treat dogs with full respect and I didn't mean for it to happen.' WHILE SANCHEZ CALLS IT AN ACCIDENT --SAYING HE DIDN'T KNOW ...
