Local Dog Issued Execution Reprieve
![]() |
First, the background: Ozzy is a seven-year-old German shepherd who attacked a little boy last month. Later, he bit an animal shelter employee. A judge ruled he was going to be put down, but apparently he has a ton of backers, including Rage Against The Machine, who held a benefit concert for Ozzy. Celebrities all over have been holding "Free Ozzy!" signs at rallies all around the area.
Ozzy now has a stay of his execution, due to an appeal by his owner. But now the George W. Hill Correctional Facility wants to use Ozzy to patrol the grounds, sparing him from death. The Philly.com screenshot with this post pretty much sums up everything else with this story.
