In response, the SPCA is launching a new web site that allows people to report abuse. NassauCountySPCA.org/Rewards goes live Monday.
The agency will also offer rewards for reports of animal cruelty.
Officials will hold a press conference Monday, accompanied by Miss Harper, a brutally-injured puppy, to announce $5,000 rewards to anyone who reports an incident of dog fighting and $1,000 rewards to anyone reporting an incident of animal cruelty that leads to arrest and conviction.
